"2013: Incident Report - April 0040"

In the mid-1990s, the National Security Council (NSC) played a significant role in shaping the United States' relationship with Rwanda. A series of documents, spanning from December 1994 to August 1995, provide valuable insights into this period.

The earliest document, titled "APNSA Trip to Rwanda Dec 94", was created on December 19, 1994. This document marked the beginning of the NSC's active engagement with Rwanda, following the turbulent events of the Rwandan Genocide.

On January 31, 1995, the NSC produced the "Rwanda Update", offering an assessment of the situation in the country. Around the same time, on February 3, 1995, the document titled "Efforts to Ease Tension in Burundi [E-mail]" was created, indicating a broader focus on the region, including Burundi.

On February 8, 1995, two documents were produced: "Summary of Conclusions of Ad Hoc Meeting on Rwanda" and "Rwanda - Burundi Ad Hoc Meeting, 3 p.m., Wednesday, February 8". These documents likely detailed the outcomes of a meeting aimed at addressing the ongoing crises in both countries.

Moving forward, the document titled "Rwanda - Burundi Paper: Prerequisites for Success" was created by the NSC in 1995, outlining potential strategies for a successful resolution. The "Briefing Memo for Ad Hoc Meeting on Rwanda / Burundi, August 22, 1995, 11 AM" was also produced on August 21, 1995, preparing for another meeting to discuss the situation.

One of the most significant events during this period was the lifting of the arms embargo on Rwanda, as documented in the "Lifting of Arms Embargo on Rwanda" on July 21, 1995.

It's worth noting that the appeal adjudication for US-Rwanda relations took place in the fiscal year 2014, with the timeframe spanning from October 1, 2013, to September 30, 2014. However, the search results do not provide the name of the person who created the ruling concerning these relations during this period.

The discussions and decisions made during this critical period undoubtedly had a lasting impact on the relationship between the United States and Rwanda. These documents, now available for public view, offer a unique perspective on the diplomatic efforts of the time. The US-Rwanda relations discussion took place at the William J. Clinton Presidential Library and Museum, a fitting location for such a significant historical event.
