    Rwanda: The Preventable Genocide

    Published July 7, 2000

    The Organization of African Unity initiated this study on the Rwandan genocide. It appointed an independent international panel to investigate the 1994 atrocities; the report was issued on July 7, 2000. The panel found the United Nations Security Council, France and Belgium, and the United States among the main parties responsible for failing to prevent genocide.
