Geneva - Rwandan President Paul Kagame criticized on Wednesday the decision to arrest his aide, Rose Kabuye, earlier this week, saying it was a violation of his nation's sovereignty.

"If we are to believe that any village judge in France can indict someone from Rwanda, then I assume the reverse is also true," Kagame told reporters, adding that the international justice system needed to be "harmonized."

Kagame was speaking at a press conference of the International Telecommunication Union on cybersecurity and climate change in Geneva.

Frankfurt - Rwandan President Paul Kagame entered a German prison Tuesday to speak in a visiting area with his senior aide Rose Kabuye, who is being held on suspicion of murder.

She was upbeat and ready to face the French investigators, Kagame said after leaving the women's jail near Frankfurt.

Kabuye was arrested Sunday as she arrived in Germany to prepare for Kagame's arrival the following day.

The president was invited to Germany by the Frankfurt Stock Exchange company. Kagame gave a lecture to German business people Monday evening. He did not meet with German officials. Berlin says his visit is legally a private one.
