French prosecutor: no grounds to pursue claims over France's alleged role in Rwanda genocide

The French prosecutor's department said on Monday that there were no grounds to pursue legal claims that France bore responsibility for enabling the 1994 genocide in Rwanda.

Last month, the Rwandan government had published a report in which it said that France was aware that a genocide was being prepared in Rwanda ahead of the killings.
