Rwanda has not taken funds from Europe or any other country to accommodate the refugees. - Germaine Kamayirese

Rwanda doesn’t need to be paid to do a humanitarian act.

Rwanda has not taken any money to honour the commitment to host African refugees from Libya. It was our proposal and we are committed to it. We believe in African solutions to African problems. We don’t have to wait for someone from outside to help us.

I also dismiss critics who say that Rwanda, which still has a considerable percentage of people living in poverty, has the resources to sustain refugees from other parts of the continent.
