“Censorship gives power to dictators and tyrants” US Official

Press Statement

John Kerry
Secretary of State

Washington, DC

May 5, 2015

On May 3^rd, we honored journalists who defend democratic ideals through their commitment to discovering and telling the truth. In doing so, we also paid tribute journalism itself, a profession to that is essential to good governance and the functioning of democracy. This is a critically important time to acknowledge the contributions of journalists. As the Committee to Protect Journalists recently reported, this is the “most deadly and dangerous period for journalists in recent history.” From violent extremists and criminal gangs who abduct and kill reporters to authoritarian governments that persecute them, press freedom is under attack.

The most common reason journalists are targeted, of course, is to limit and control the free flow of information and ideas. Censorship gives power to dictators and tyrants; it allows them to mask the truth, to propagate false narratives that play to their self-serving interests. That’s what’s happening in places like Syria, where those in power, and the extremists present there, want nothing to stand in the way of their ability to distort the truth.

But journalists aren’t just under attack in war zones. In Paris, journalists and cartoonists were murdered for exercising their right to free expression. In China, journalists continue to suffer surveillance, censorship, and detainment. In Russia, the government has expanded its control over the media and prosecuted bloggers for failing to conform to its increasingly strict definition of “legitimate views.”

At the State Department, we’ve launched the Free the Press campaign, highlighting individual journalists who remain wrongly imprisoned. The list includes Gao Yu, a 71-year-old Chinese journalist, who was sentenced to seven years for allegedly leaking state secrets to foreign media; Mazen Darwish, who remains imprisoned by the Asad regime for trying to expose the regime’s brutal atrocities; Ta Phong Tan, who is serving a 10-year sentence in Vietnam for unmasking government corruption; and Reeyot Alemu, who was imprisoned in Ethiopia for writing an article critical of her government.

The United States calls for the immediate release of these individuals and all journalists imprisoned for doing their jobs. We will continue to speak out when journalists are unfairly arrested and detained; we will continue to raise these issues with foreign officials at every level; and we will continue to promote journalists’ physical and digital safety. Freedom of expression is one of our country’s core values and one which we will continue to defend both at home and overseas.

EU Urges Rwanda to develop a true multiparty democracy and allow space for peaceful dissent

Leave a reply

Open letter from European Union Heads of Mission in Rwanda on the occasion of Human Right Day

The theme of this year’s Human Rights Day is “Human Rights 365”, reminding us that every day is Human Rights Day and that each person, everywhere, is at every moment entitled to the full range of human rights. Respect for human rights is one of the European Union’s core values, embedded in the founding treaty, and we continue to ensure that these principles are upheld in all our actions.

We work with the people and the Government of Rwanda to promote human rights, democracy and good governance. We support the ambition of the Government’s Economic Development and Poverty Reduction Strategy with its goal of accelerating progress to middle income status to provide better quality of life for all Rwandans. We especially welcome the emphasis placed on respect for rule of law, gender, family and children’s rights as crosscutting issues in the strategy.

As we continue to support Rwanda’s ambitious development and growth targets, we encourage the development of a vibrant and vocal civil society. In its conclusions of 22 July 2014, the EU Foreign Affairs Council welcomed the progress made by Rwanda on structural reforms, but noted with concern the constraints faced by political parties and civil society. The EU encouraged Rwanda to further open up the political space and to allow greater freedom of expression in order to facilitate fuller democratic participation.

The Government demonstrated openness to discuss difficult topics by inviting the UN Special Rapporteur on the Rights to Freedom of Peaceful Assembly Maina Kiai to Rwanda. While commending Rwanda for its progress over the last 20 years, the Special Rapporteur stressed the importance of building upon that foundation by developing a true multiparty democracy and allowing space for peaceful dissent. The Special Rapporteur made recommendations addressed to the Government, civil society and the international community. We are committed to implementing the recommendations addressed to us and encourage Rwanda to do the same.

We urge the Government to continue working towards the universal implementation of human rights. The legitimate fight against terrorism and other security considerations should not be used to restrict the right to express dissent or criticism. That includes journalists, civil society and those advocating for greater political freedoms.

“Human Rights 365” emphasises the universal rights and fundamental freedoms as expressed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It was adopted by representatives of all regions and cultures, demonstrating that human rights apply to all human beings without discrimination. The EU is committed to advancing the cause of human rights globally, and we look forward to continue working with the Government and people of Rwanda to realise this commitment.

Padiri Nahimana Thomas, umuyobozi w’ishyaka ISHEMA ry’u Rwanda

« Demokarasi ni ukudatinya amatora »

Banyarwandakazi, Banyarwanda, baturanyi b’u Rwanda,

Taliki ya 28 Mutarama 1961, ntiteze kwibagirana mu mateka y’u Rwanda. Uwo munsi, Nyiricyubahiro Gregoire Kayibanda, Dominiko Mbunyumutwa n’abandi barwanashyaka b’imena bakoze igikorwa cyahinduye bidasubirwaho amateka y’u Rwanda.

Bahamagaje abayobozi bose b’amakomini bari baherutse gutorwa na rubanda muri Kamena 1960, bahurira i Gitarama (Place du marché public). Bari bafite igitekerezo cyo gukoraIGIKORWAkitazibagirana . Kandi babigezeho. Taliki ya 28 Mutarama 1961, hafashwe ibyemezo bitandatu byahise bishyirwa mu bikorwa bihindura burundu icyerekezo cy’amateka y’igihugu. Ibyo byemezo ni ibi bikurikira :

(1)Gusezerera ingoma ya cyami

(2)Gutangaza Repubulika

(3)Guca Karinga n’izayo zose

(4) Gushyiraho ibendera rya Repubulika y’u Rwanda

(5)Kugena Itegekonshinga rya Repubulika

(6)Gushyiraho inzego z’ubuyobozi bwa Repubulika: Perezidansi,Guverinoma, Intekonshingamategeko, n’ubutegetsi bw’ubucamanza

Ibi byose bimaze gukorwa LONI ntiyashoboye kubisambura nk’uko yabisabwaga n’Umwami n’abiru be, bityo bigaragara ko nta bushobozi ifite bwo gusubiza inyuma amateka y’u Rwanda. Nibwo abayobozi b’ishyaka LUNARI bumvise ikosa riremereye rya politiki bakoze,mu gutinya no kwihunzaamatora yo mu 1960,iryo shyaka ryabaye nk’iryiteye inkota mu mutima. N’ubu abarikundaga baracyabyicuza.

Umunsi w’iya 28 Mutarama niwo watangiye rubanda rya banga rya politiki rihatse ayandi rikaba n’umutima wa demokarasi , ko“Ubutegetsi bwose buri mu maboko ya rubanda”.

Repubulika ya kabiri yakoze ikosa rikomeye ryo guhigika uguhimbazwa kw’italiki ya 28 Mutarama, nk’isabukuru ngarukamwaka ya Demokarasi na Repubulika. Kugeza n’ubu uwo munsi mukuru waribagiranye kandi nyamara aribwo wari ukenewe cyane kugira ngo ukomeze wigishe Abanyarwanda icyo Demokarasi aricyo kandi utoze urubyiruko akamaro ko guharanira iyo ndangagaciro isumba izindi.

Koko rero hari benshi bakora politiki batazi ibyo barimo, abenshi bakayikora baringiye kubona uburyo bwo gukurikirana inyungu zabo bwite, hakaba n’abayikora babitewe koko no guharanira inyungu za rubanda. Hatabayeho demokarasi ntawashobora kubatandukanya.

Demokarasi niyo iha umwenegihugu uwo ari wese amahirwe yo kuba yaganira na rubanda, akayereka imigambi myiza yifitemo, rubanda ikamwemera cyangwa ikamwamagana. Ibyo ntibyakunda hatabayeho demokarasi.

Nta yindi nzira ibaho tuzi yo guhosha umwiryane n’imidugararo, kuzana amahoro n’umutekano mu benegihugu hatabayeho uburyo bwo gucyamura abantu ku giti cyabo cyangwa imiryango ishaka kwihambira ku butegetsi no guhindura abandi benegihugu abagererwa n’inkomamashyi mbese nko mu gihe cy’ingoma ya cyami na gihake, ya yindi yari yarasezerewe taliki ya 28 Mutarama 1961. Demokarasi ni yo ifasha rubanda gucyaha cyangwa gushima Abanyapolitiki b’ukuri.

Banyarwandakazi, Banyarwanda, baturanyi b’u Rwanda,

Nta matora, nta demokarasi.

Isomo dukura muri ibyo byose ni uko demokarasi ubwayo itabaho hatabayeho amatora. Amatora ni wo mutima wa Demokarasi. Uburenganzira bwo gutora ntawe ukwiye kubukerensa mu gihe tuzi ko hari ababuharaniye kugeza bambuwe ubuzima.

Amatora y’abayobozi b’amakomini yabaye mu 1960, niyo yabaye intangiriro nyakuri ya demokarasi mu Rwanda. Abaturage bari baratsikamiwe na gihake bisubije uburenganzira bwo kwihitiramo abayobozi bibonamo. Abatowe icyo gihe ni nabo nyine bahuriye i Gitarama, hari taliki ya 28 Mutarama 1961, maze bafata icyemezo cyo gusezerera cyami na karinga birajyana, bitoramo Perezida wa mbere wa Repubulika, ariwe Nyakwibukanwishema Dominiko Mbonyumutwa, na we ashyiraho Guverinoma, abasigaye biremamo intekonshingamategeko, abandi bahabwa kuba abakuru b’ubutegetsi bw’Ubucamanza. Repubulika iba ivutse ityo. Ibendera n’indirimbo yubahiriza igihugu bisimbura Karinga n’imirishyo yayo.

11.Kuva uwo munsi kugera n’ubungubu u Rwanda ni Repubulika, byabaye nk’ihame ridakuka. Kugeza n’ubu abayobozi b’ishyaka LUNARI ntibaribagirwa icyaha cyabo gikabije cyo guhunga amatora no gukinira hanze y’ikibuga, kandi byarashoboraga kugenda ukundi.

Isomo rya kabiri twakwigira aho ni uko guhunga amatora byari icyaha gikabije ejo hashize , bikiri icyaha gikomeye n’uyu munsi, kandi bikaba bizakomeza kuba icyaha kijyana mu rupfu n’ ejo hazaza. Uhunze amatora aba yikuye mu kibuga cya politiki , agasa n’uwahawe ikarita y’umutuku kubera amakosa ye.

Nta matora yoroshye yigeze kubaho mu Rwanda, nta n’ahandi aba, nta n’igihe azabaho. Amatora ya demukarasi ni urugamba nk’izindi zose. Abiyemeza kururwana bagomba gukenyera bagakomeza. Abishuka ko bazajya mu matora ngo mu gihe nta “nta risque “ n’imwe izaba ikiriho nta buryo batakora rya kosa twakomeje kuvuga ryo kuyahunga no kwikura mu kibuga. Bene abo bakwiye kwigira mu kiruhuko cy’izabukuru, ibihe byarahindutse !

Mu mwaka w’2003, Nyakubahwa Faustin Twagiramungu yagerageje kugira uruhare mu matora y’umukuru w’igihugu, twabonye uko byagenze, icyakora ntibyabaye guta igihe. Ku bazi gushishoza nk’abanyapolitiki, icyo gikorwa cyari umunzani utanga igipimo cy’aho imyumvire ya rubanda igeze : Abaturage baratinyutse batora uko babyumva batitaye ku ngaruka byabagiraho, ubutegetsi bwa FPR buhinduka rubebe n’ igisambo cy’amajwi izuba riva!

Mu mwaka w’2010, Madame Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza yasize byose ajya mu Rwanda agamije guhangana na Paul Kagame mu matora y’umukuru w’igihugu, aho ari ubu turahazi. Nyamara igikorwa cy’uwo mubyeyi nticyari ikosa nta n’ubwo cyari ukwihuta . Cyari ikizami gihawe Abanyapolitiki ba opozisiyo kandi uwatsinzwe si Victoire Ingabire! Umugabo umwe agerwa kuri nyina ,dusanzwe tubizi. Komora inzovu ntibishobora guharirwa abategarugori abagabo bigaramiye!

Iyo uteranyije 2003 ku 2010 bitanga icyerekezo CY’2017: Rubanda irahari habuze Abalideri batinyuka, bazi kwifatanya no gukorana na rubanda, ubundi uwahekwaga akigenza ku manywa y’ihangu.

16.Mu gihe uwagennye ko ingero zombi zo mu 2003 n’2010 zizahora zimufasha guca intege abadasanganywe nyinshi, bikagamburuza ubutwari bw’abashaka impinduka, biragaragara ko hari ibanga rimwe rishobora kuba ryaramwihishe, ni uko ibihe bihora bisimburana iteka kandi akaba nta bapfira gushira.

Hari urubyiruko rwa Nouvelle Generation rwamaze kumenya neza ko ntawe uhabwa uburenganzira bwe ku isahani, bityo ko demokarasi itazazuka mu Rwanda hadatanzwe ibitambo bitari bike. Koko demokarasi ni ubukungu bukomeye umwana w’umuntu yakwemera no kumenera amaraso ye.

Uwakwicara hasi agasuzuma neza umubare munini cyane w’abagore n’abagabo b’Abanyarwanda b’intwari, baba abari mu gihugu cyangwa abagihunze, ukabarura abicwa n’inzoga ndetse n’itabi buri munsi, ukitegereza umubare w’abazira impanuka zo mu muhanda buri cyumweru, ukongeraho uw’abanigirwa mu maguru y’indaya buri kwezi, ugateranyaho abasaga ibihumbi ijana Kagame yicira ubusa buri mwaka…….yagakwiye kwibaza ati “guharanira demokarasi mu Rwanda byo bimaze kudutwara bangahe “?

Ndahera aha nshishikariza urubyiruko gushyira mu gaciro, tukifashisha ya mibare twize mu mashuri abanza, tugateranya, tugakuramo ndetse tugakuba, tukibaza kandi tukisubiza! Demokarasi ni indangagaciro ihatse izindi mu gihugu nk’u Rwanda cyamunzwe n’ingoma y’igitugu nyuma y’akangarateke rubanda yarimo ku ngoma ya gihake. Guharanira demokarasi nta gihombo kirimo, gukomeza kuyirengagiza ni ukubura byose nk’ingata imennye, kuyitangira tukaba twayimenera n’amaraso yacu,BIRAKWIYE KANDI BIRATUNGANYE.

19.Ngiyi impamvu, mu izina ry’Abataripfana bose kimwe n’abo tureba mu cyerekezo kimwe, nongeye gutangaza kuri uyu munsi w’iya 28 Mutarama ko ku italiki nk’iyi umwaka utaha w’2016, Ishyaka ISHEMA ry’u Rwanda rizasesekara mu Rwanda, kuko ryo ridateganya guhunga amatora yo mu 2017, mbese nk’uko Ishyaka LUNARI ryabikoze rikiyahura bidasuburwaho, dore turiho turibuka ko imyaka ishize isaga 54.

20.Nifurije umunsi mwiza abakunda Repubulika y’u Rwanda bose,

Umunsi w’ibyishimo ku bigeze gusogongera ku byiza bya demokarasi

Umunsi w’amizero ku rubyiruko rusonzeye kwandika izina mu gitabo cy’abitangiye kubaka u Rwanda ruha amahirwe angana abana barwo bose rutabavanguye.

“Corruption empowers and enriches dictators”- US Department of State

Leave a reply

Op-Ed

Tom Malinowski
Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor

Washington Post

December 26, 2014

When Viktor Yanukovych fled Kiev in February, the Ukrainian leader left behind a spectacular Swiss chalet-style mansion, a golf course, dozens of antique cars and a private zoo boasting $10,000 nameplates for the animal pens. Even the Ukrainian public, painfully familiar with the corruption of its leaders, was shocked. Yanukovych had managed to keep the chalet hidden because it was owned not by him but by an anonymous shell company registered in Britain. Other corrupt leaders have used the same trick to hide billions of dollars offshore, including through companies registered in the United States.

The rise and fall of Ukraine’s top kleptocrat teaches us a couple of things about corruption.

First, in many countries, corruption and human rights are tightly bound. The chance to profit from corruption is why many authoritarian leaders seize and cling to power. It becomes the glue that holds their regimes together, giving them spoils to distribute while turning their cronies into criminals who could be exposed and punished if they turn disloyal. It is also among the issues most likely to fuel popular resistance to authoritarianism, as we’ve seen from Tunisia to Russia and Venezuela. Any strategy to promote democracy and human rights must have the fight against corruption at its heart.

Second, we can’t fight corruption abroad if we don’t stop its proceeds from flowing through our companies and banks. We already work hard to return illicitly acquired assets to benefit the citizens of such countries, generally after the leaders who stole them have left office. But this kind of “departure tax” for falling autocrats is not enough: We must do more to deny safe haven to such funds while corrupt leaders are still in power. One way to do that is to prevent the registration of anonymous shell companies on our shores.

The Treasury Department recently took a significant step toward limiting the use of such companies by proposing a regulation that would require financial institutions to collect and verify the identity of the people behind company accountholders. President Obama’s 2015 budget includes a much more far-reaching proposal: It would require all companies to identify their “beneficial ownership” — the human beings who own or control them — to the IRS as part of a routine tax filing and make that information more readily available to law enforcement. Congress should enact this proposal now to ensure that our legal and financial systems are not used to hide corruption and facilitate autocracy overseas.

The overwhelming majority of U.S. companies that have a bank account or pay taxes in the United States already disclose their beneficial ownership. Thus, they would not be burdened and would only benefit from a reform that makes registration in the United States a sure sign of legitimacy rather than a cause for suspicion.

It is foreign criminals and corrupt officials who can benefit from the ability to conceal their identities under our current financial system. They are unlikely to file a U.S. tax return, and if they register a paper legal entity in the United States, they can use it to open a bank account on an offshore island. Indeed, they can create a web of 50 anonymous entities overnight simply by calling a state company registration office, or they can even purchase “shelf” companies registered a decade ago, adopting an additional guise of establishment and credibility. When U.S. law enforcement agencies investigate corruption or other crimes, often all they have is the name of a company and a dead end.

The wildly corrupt son of Equatorial Guinea’s president, for example, allegedly set up a slew of shell companies in the United States to launder millions of dollars of bribes from international logging companies, hiding any ties to himself. Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue used this money to purchase a $30 million Malibu, Calif., estate, a $38 million private jet and about $2 million worth of Michael Jackson memorabilia, among other luxuries. Meanwhile, most of his compatriots live on less than $2 per day.

Corruption empowers and enriches dictators. But here is another lesson from Ukraine: It can also become their greatest political vulnerability. Authoritarian governments may be able to muster excuses for shooting demonstrators, arresting political enemies or censoring the Internet, but no cultural, patriotic or national security argument can justify thievery. Disgust with corruption can also ease the ethnic, religious and social divisions such regimes exploit to stay in power — it’s a point of agreement between southern and northern Nigerians, nationalists and liberals in Russia, Shiites and Sunnis across the Middle East.

Fighting corruption by improving financial transparency may be one of the most effective ways of promoting liberty around the world. Members of Congress who believe in that cause and who want us to do better should embrace the president’s proposal to strengthen those laws by closing the shell company loophole that enables dictators to conceal their criminality from their people and the world.

UKURI- UBUTWARI UGUSARANGANYA

Mu nama yabaye kuri uyu wa gatandatu taliki ya 2 Werurwe 2013, Ubuyobozi bukuru bw’Ishyaka Ishema ry’U Rwanda bwasuzumanye ubushishozi ibibazo bikomeye igihugu cyacu gifite biturutse ahanini ku butegetsi bw’igitugu bw’Agatsiko.

Ni nde se utabona ko ibi byemezo biri mu bushobozi bwacu kandi ko biramutse bishyizwe mu bikorwa, u Rwanda rwahindura isura, ikarushaho kuba nziza, mu gihe gito ?

Muri make, “philosophie” ibiri inyuma yagaragarira buri wese tuyihiniye muri izi ngingo uko ari umunani :

(1)Ishingiro ry’Igenabitekerezo(Idéologie) ry’Ishyaka Ishema ni izi ndangagaciro: UKURI-UBUTWARI-UGUSARANGANYA.

(2) Kugira ngo u Rwanda rugire umutekano nyawo, intwaro za kirimbuzi zigomba kugabanuka mu gihugu (démilitarisation).

(3) Iterambere Abanyarwanda bifuza si iryihariwe n’Agatsiko gato ahubwo ni irisangiwe na bose (Juste redistribution des richesses).

(4) Ishema ry’ubuyobozi bukunzwe n’abaturage, si ukwikanyiza, kunyereza no kwikubira, ahubwo ni ubutwari bwo kubungabunga no guteza imbere inyungu rusange (Sauvegarde de l’Intérêt général).
