may 17, 1994 - UN SAYS GENOCIDE "MAY BE HAPPENING"
Description:
Reluctant before now to say that the killings in Rwanda are genocide, the UN now agrees that the murders could be genocide. It plans to send in 5,500 new troops to help, but the United States and the UN cannot agree on how to pay for it and sending the troops is delayed.
