Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The 1994 treatment of the Tutsis by the Hutus in Rwanda was characterized by mass killing and extermination of the Tutsis, which is the definition of genocide. The Hutu majority pursued a policy of ethnic cleansing against the Tutsi minority, resulting in the deaths of an estimated 800,000 people. This is not an example of population transfer, internal colonialism or segregation.
