Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee That is a very difficult question. Genocide is a crime that creates a vast gulf in the community where it is perpetrated. We are not going to see Hutus and Tutsis communicate openly overnight. It is difficult to be among the survivors of the genocide, but it is even harder to belong to the group that committed the genocide, because people do not want to accept that their ethnic group committed a genocide.

Subcommittee on International Human Rights committee Thank you, honourable chair, for giving me the floor. My name is Jean-Bosco Iyakaremye and I represent the Humura Association. This organization is headquartered in the national capital, and defends the rights of the survivors of the genocide in Rwanda. I thank the Subcommittee on International Human Rights for having invited me to testify this afternoon on the situation of children who were born of rape following the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda.
