Question 7 • EAP-Virginia and US History B CR

Which statement describes how the United States reacted to Rwanda’s genocide of the Tutsi people?

Answer
A
The United States withdrew troops from Rwanda before they could be effective.
B
The United States threatened to invade Rwanda if the genocide did not stop.
C
The United States failed to get involved in Rwanda when Tutsi people were being killed.
D
The United States killed Tutsi people while trying to stop the conflict.

Explanation

During the 1994 genocide, the United States did not send forces to stop the mass killing of Tutsi people and did not intervene militarily. It failed to get involved while Tutsi people were being killed, which matches choice C. The United States had no troops in Rwanda to withdraw, so choice A is misleading.
