Question 3 • HVA 26-27 IM Contemporary World Problems A

Which of the following statements about the 1994 genocide in Rwanda is most accurate?

Answer
A
Hutu extremists were responsible for killing over one million Tutsis.
B
Tutsi extremists were responsible for killing over one million Hutus.
C
Tutsi and Hutu extremists killed each other in roughly equal numbers.
D
The United Nations intervened before either the Hutus or the Tutsis managed to inflict serious casualties. Please select the best answer from the choices prov

Explanation

The 1994 genocide in Rwanda was primarily organized and carried out by Hutu extremists, who targeted the Tutsi minority and also killed moderate Hutus. Estimates of the death toll are commonly around 800,000, so the claim of over one million Tutsis is higher than the usual estimate, but choice A is the most accurate among the choices. The United Nations did not prevent the mass killings, making D incorrect.
