Dear Mr. President,
On behalf of the PDR-Ihumure, the Intwari Partnership, and the UDF-Inkingi, three political organizations of Rwandan refugees in Africa, the U.S., Canada and Europe that have forged a coalition to fight President Paul Kagame's RPF dictatorship in Kigali, we welcome the news of your upcoming visit to Africa, especially to Rwanda, our beloved mother land. Rwanda is dubbed the country of a thousand hills, but it is also the country of a thousand problems. That is why we feel compelled to bring to your attention a few critical elements of information regarding our country, especially since your visit will focus on "countries where progress is being made in economic development, the fight against HIV/AIDS and other treatable diseases", and we strongly believe Rwanda is not of them
