On July 2, 2024, Rwanda's Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, Olivier Nduhungirehe, received courtesy calls from Antoine Anfré, Ambassador of France to Rwanda, and H.E. Amb. Heike Uta Dettman, Ambassador of Germany to Rwanda.

"They discussed further strengthening relations and partnerships in areas of mutual benefit," a tweet from the Rwanda Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed.

Diplomatic relations between Rwanda and Germany were established in 1962. Ever since, there have been close and trust-based ties.

During government negotiations in October 2022, Germany pledged 93.6 million euros to Rwanda for the period 2022 to 2024.

Of this, 63 million euros are allocated to financial cooperation and 30.6 million euros for technical cooperation.

Rwanda is part of the G20 Compact with Africa initiative launched by Germany to improve economic framework conditions. Since the COVID-19 crisis, Germany has also been an important partner to Rwanda in the field of health, for example through the work of the Robert Koch Institute, the multilateral COVAX vaccine initiative, and the opening of a BioNTech vaccine production facility.

The Government of Rwanda and France have shared cooperation in the development of various institutions including the health sector and the infrastructures that depend on it.

On April 6, 2024, in Kigali, Rwanda and France signed a development cooperation agreement that will allow Rwanda to receive Rwf 577 billion over a period of five years.

At that time, it was signed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of France, Stephane Sejourne, and Dr. Vincent Biruta, who was the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Rwanda.

They also signed an agreement allowing Rwanda Air to fly to Paris three times a week.
