Rwanda: Arrest Warrants

Volume 454: debated on Wednesday 6 December 2006

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if she will take steps to bring before the next meeting of EU Foreign Ministers the matter of the issue of arrest warrants by French judicial authorities for nine associates of the Rwandan President. (107751)

These warrants are a matter between the French judiciary and the Rwandan Government. We have no current plans to raise it at the European level. All parties are aware of our view that they should avoid long-term harm to their bilateral relations.
