A seguito di una recente visita in Rwanda per partecipare all’assemblea paritetica Ue-Paesi dell’area Africa-Caraibi-Pacifico (Acp), per discutere di rapporti commerciali tra Europa e Acp, l’europarlamentare Vittorio Agnoletto ci ha inviato la seguente riflessione che volentieri pubblichiamo. L’europarlamentare affronta tre nodi rilevanti nell’attuale vicenda sociale ruandese: l’istituzione dal 2005 dei tribunali Gacaca a cui spetta il compito di rivelare la verità sul genocidio, sradicare la cultura dell’impunità, rinforzare l’unità e la riconciliazione dei ruandesi. Per quanto riguarda la lotta all’Aids, il sistema ruandese, grazie ai contributi stanziati dal Fondo Globale e attraverso il servizio sanitario con ambulatori nei villaggi riesce a fornire farmaci antiretrovirali per il 50% di coloro che ne avrebbero necessità. Ma gli attuali accordi che l’Unione Europea intende imporre ai Paesi Acp delineano “una catastrofe”: in un solo anno si stima che il Rwanda perderà oltre 17 milioni di dollari. di Vittorio Agnoletto
