About

Next month marks 30 years since the onset of the world’s worst mass slaughter since the Holocaust: the Rwandan genocide.

Among the forces that ushered in an end to the conflict was a military officer who would ultimately become Rwanda’s president: Paul Kagame.

FDD’s RADM (Ret.) Mark Montgomery recently met with President Kagame and other senior officials in Kigali.

In addition to a debrief on his trip, he joins host Cliff May to discuss Russian and Chinese neo-imperialism in Africa; the environmental harm being caused by the exploitative extraction of cobalt and other minerals necessary for an “energy transition”; the wars in Sudan, Ethiopia, and Libya, what BRICS is building; the spread of Islamism and jihadist violence in Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, and other African countries.
