\u201cThis, he showed that it is going to be one of his priorities because of his experience in the economic planning of the country, a field he has worked in for many years\u201d said Senator Bideri.<\/p>\n

Gatete will also work towards fighting Genocide ideology in foreign countries, but also work with the countries that are currently harboring genocide fugitives to make sure that they are brought to justice.<\/p>\n
