Ibrahim Gambari: |
| "There was a glaring and tragic lack of political will to intervene to stop the genocide, especially on the part of the most powerful members of the United Nations organization." |
| "So much time has elapsed and, in so many ways, so little has been accomplished, by the international community in preventing the recurrence of genocide and other crimes against humanity. We need to act now to ensure that we would not continue to apologise while genocides continue in a tragic vicious circle." |
| "The international community must move beyond apology to a collective determination to ensure that 'never again' shall these tragic events be allowed to occur." |
| "Without a doubt it was the Security Council, especially its most powerful members, as well as the international community as a whole, that failed the people of Rwanda in their gravest hour of need." |
| "Those countries, in large part, ignored the moral and overriding duty to help save hapless and defenceless civilians, including innocent women and children, who were being massacred." |
