The RPF was one of the parties of the conflict during the <a href="/wiki/Rwandan_Civil_War" title="Rwandan Civil War">Rwandan Civil War</a> and the armed force which ended the <a href="/wiki/Rwandan_genocide" title="Rwandan genocide">Rwandan genocide</a>. He was considered Rwanda's <i><a href="/wiki/De_facto" title="De facto">de facto</a></i> leader when he was <a href="/wiki/Vice_President_of_Rwanda" title="Vice President of Rwanda">Vice President</a> and <a href="/wiki/Minister_of_Defense_(Rwanda)" class="mw-redirect" title="Minister of Defense (Rwanda)">Minister of Defence</a> under President <a href="/wiki/Pasteur_Bizimungu" title="Pasteur Bizimungu">Pasteur Bizimungu</a> from 1994 to 2000 after which the vice-presidential post was abolished. </p><p>Born to a <a href="/wiki/Tutsi" title="Tutsi">Tutsi</a> family in southern Rwanda that fled to <a href="/wiki/Uganda" title="Uganda">Uganda</a> when he was two years old, Kagame spent the rest of his childhood there during the <a href="/wiki/Rwandan_Revolution" title="Rwandan Revolution">Rwandan Revolution</a>, which ended Tutsi political dominance. In the 1980s, Kagame fought in <a href="/wiki/Yoweri_Museveni" title="Yoweri Museveni">Yoweri Museveni</a>'s rebel army becoming a senior Ugandan army officer after many military victories led Museveni to the <a href="/wiki/President_of_Uganda" title="President of Uganda">Ugandan presidency</a>. Kagame joined the RPF, taking control of the group when previous leader <a href="/wiki/Fred_Rwigyema" title="Fred Rwigyema">Fred Rwigyema</a> died on the second day of the 1990 invasion. By 1993, the RPF controlled significant territory in Rwanda and <a href="/wiki/Arusha_Accords_(Rwanda)" title="Arusha Accords (Rwanda)">a ceasefire</a> was negotiated. The <a href="/wiki/Assassination_of_Juv%C3%A9nal_Habyarimana_and_Cyprien_Ntaryamira" title="Assassination of Juvénal Habyarimana and Cyprien Ntaryamira">assassination</a> of Rwandan President <a href="/wiki/Juv%C3%A9nal_Habyarimana" title="Juvénal Habyarimana">Juvénal Habyarimana</a> set off the <a href="/wiki/Rwandan_genocide" title="Rwandan genocide">genocide</a>, in which <a href="/wiki/Hutu" title="Hutu">Hutu</a> extremists killed an estimated 500,000 to 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutu. Kagame resumed the civil war and ended the genocide with a military victory. </p><p>During his vice presidency, Kagame controlled the national army and was responsible for maintaining the government's power, while other officials began rebuilding the country. Many RPF soldiers carried out retribution killings. Kagame said he did not support these killings but failed to stop them. Hutu refugee camps formed in <a href="/wiki/Zaire" title="Zaire">Zaire</a> and other countries and the RPF attacked the camps in 1996, but insurgents continued to attack Rwanda. As part of the invasion, Kagame sponsored two rebel wars in Zaire. Rwandan- and Ugandan-backed rebels won the <a href="/wiki/First_Congo_War" title="First Congo War">first war</a> (1996–97), installing <a href="/wiki/Laurent-D%C3%A9sir%C3%A9_Kabila" title="Laurent-Désiré Kabila">Laurent-Désiré Kabila</a> as <a href="/wiki/List_of_heads_of_state_of_the_Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo" title="List of heads of state of the Democratic Republic of the Congo">president</a> in place of dictator <a href="/wiki/Mobutu_Sese_Seko" title="Mobutu Sese Seko">Mobutu Sese Seko</a> and returning Zaire to its former pre-Mobutu name, the <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Republic_of_the_Congo" title="Democratic Republic of the Congo">Democratic Republic of the Congo</a> (DRC). The <a href="/wiki/Second_Congo_War" title="Second Congo War">second war</a> was launched in 1998 against Kabila, and later his son <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Kabila" title="Joseph Kabila">Joseph</a>, following the DRC government's expulsion of Rwandan and Ugandan military forces from the country. The war escalated into a conflict that lasted until a 2003 peace deal and ceasefire. </p><p>Bizimungu resigned in 2000, most likely having been forced to do so, following a falling out with the RPF. He was replaced by Kagame. Bizimungu was later imprisoned for corruption and inciting ethnic violence, charges that human rights groups described as politically motivated. Kagame's rule is considered authoritarian, and human rights groups accuse him of political repression. Overall opinion on the regime by foreign observers is mixed, and as president, Kagame has prioritised national development, launching programmes which have led to development on key indicators including <a href="/wiki/Healthcare_in_Rwanda" title="Healthcare in Rwanda">healthcare</a>, <a href="/wiki/Education_in_Rwanda" title="Education in Rwanda">education</a> and <a href="/wiki/Economy_of_Rwanda" title="Economy of Rwanda">economic growth</a>.

Relations with the DRC remain tense despite the 2003 ceasefire; human rights groups and a leaked United Nations report allege Rwandan support for two insurgencies in the country, a charge Kagame denies. Several countries suspended aid payments in 2012 following these allegations. Since coming to power, Kagame has won <a href="/wiki/Elections_in_Rwanda" title="Elections in Rwanda">four presidential elections</a>, but none of these have been rated free or fair by international observers. His role in the assassination of exiled political opponents has been controversial. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life">Early life</h2></div> <p>Kagame was born on 23 October 1957, the youngest of six children,<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEWaugh20048_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWaugh20048-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> in Tambwe, <a href="/wiki/Ruanda-Urundi" title="Ruanda-Urundi">Ruanda-Urundi</a>, a village located in what is now the <a href="/wiki/Southern_Province,_Rwanda" title="Southern Province, Rwanda">Southern Province</a> of Rwanda.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEOffice_of_the_President_(I)2011_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEOffice_of_the_President_(I)2011-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> His father, Deogratias Rutagambwa, was a member of the <a href="/wiki/Tutsi" title="Tutsi">Tutsi</a> ethnic group, from which the royal family had been derived since the 18th century or earlier.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEChrétien2003160_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEChrétien2003160-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A member of the Bega clan, Deogratias Rutagambwa had family ties to King <a href="/wiki/Mutara_III_of_Rwanda" class="mw-redirect" title="Mutara III of Rwanda">Mutara III</a>, but he pursued an independent business career rather than maintain a close connection to the royal court.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEWaugh20048_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWaugh20048-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Kagame's mother, Asteria Bisinda, descended from the family of the last Rwandan queen, <a href="/wiki/Rosalie_Gicanda" title="Rosalie Gicanda">Rosalie Gicanda</a>, that is from the Hebera branch of the royal Nyiginya clan.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEDelmas1950_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEDelmas1950-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>At the time of Kagame's birth, Rwanda was a <a href="/wiki/United_Nations_Trust_Territories" class="mw-redirect" title="United Nations Trust Territories">United Nations Trust Territory</a> which had been ruled, in various forms, by <a href="/wiki/Belgian_colonial_empire" title="Belgian colonial empire">Belgium</a> since 1916 under a mandate to oversee eventual <a href="/wiki/Decolonization_of_Africa" class="mw-redirect" title="Decolonization of Africa">independence</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEUnited_Nations_(II)_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEUnited_Nations_(II)-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEUnited_Nations_(III)_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEUnited_Nations_(III)-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Rwandans were made up of three distinct groups: the minority Tutsi were the traditional ruling class, and the Belgian colonial administration had long promoted Tutsi supremacy,<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEAppiahGates2010450_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEAppiahGates2010450-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> while the majority <a href="/wiki/Hutu" title="Hutu">Hutu</a> were agriculturalists.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEPrunier199911–12_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrunier199911–12-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The third group, the <a href="/wiki/Twa" title="Twa">Twa</a>, were a forest-dwelling <a href="/wiki/Pygmy_peoples" title="Pygmy peoples">pygmy people</a> descended from Rwanda's earliest inhabitants, who formed less than <span data-sort-value="7000100000000000000♠" style="display:none"></span>1% of the population.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMamdani200261_9-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMamdani200261-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Tensions between Tutsi and Hutu had been escalating during the 1950s, and culminated in the 1959 <a href="/wiki/Rwandan_Revolution" title="Rwandan Revolution">Rwandan Revolution</a>.
