At a ceremony paying tribute to victims 30 years after the Rwandan genocide, President Paul Kagame says his "people will never be left for dead again". "This is a nation of 14 million people, who are ready to confront any attempt to take us backwards," he adds. The 100-day massacre at the hands of Hutu extremists started on April 7 in 1994 and claimed the lives of 800,000 people, largely Tutsis but also moderate Hutus. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
