President Paul Kagame has reiterated Rwanda's commitment to promoting good diplomatic relations with other
countries.
The Rwandan Head of State made the statement while hosting over 60 members of the Diplomatic Corps at the annual Diplomats’ Luncheon on Wednesday.
Prior to the Luncheon, the head of state first welcomed the 10 new Ambassadors who presented their Credentials to him on Wednesday and also noted that 2019 was a good year for the country, though by no means does it mean that Rwanda's journey is over.
Speaking on behalf of the Diplomatic Corp, Guy Nestor Itoua, the Ambassador of the Republic of Congo to Rwanda commended the Government of Rwanda for its efforts on many fronts.
"Your Excellency Mr President, the 30th of May 2019 saw the African Continental Free Trade Area Agreement comes into effect, having been signed here in Kigali in 2018 when you chaired the AU in an exemplary manner. Your Excellency Mr President, allow us to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. The Diplomatic Corp also commends the Government of Rwanda for decisions made in 2019; especially the collaboration that became evident on borders when it comes to stopping the spread of Epidemics like Ebola after it became evident in the Eastern part of the DRC. That helped us to carry out our duties with ease here in Kigali and in the Provinces," Itoua, Dean of Diplomatic Corps said.
On his part, Dr Vincent Biruta, Rwanda's Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation noted that last year illustrated how good bilateral relations with other countries can help people here in Rwanda to develop at an even faster pace.
President Kagame also showcased to the Diplomats some of the important events Rwanda is preparing for during this year, including the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting the country will be hosting in June.
