Editing Rwanda (section)

== Foreign relations ==

Rwanda's foreign relations are shaped by its position in the African Great Lakes region. Its neighboring states are [[Uganda]], [[Tanzania]], [[Burundi]], and the [[Democratic Republic of the Congo]]. The country has also been connected to regional organizations and wider African diplomatic structures.

During the Tanoan-aligned period, foreign policy was controlled through [[SS-Großabschnitt Afrika]] and the central institutions of the [[Tanoa Einsatzgruppen]]. Rwanda did not conduct independent military or strategic diplomacy during this period. Relations with other Tanoan-influenced African territories were managed through the African command structure.<ref name="regional-commands"/>

After 2024, the transitional government began reestablishing independent foreign relations. Its main concerns were border security, refugee issues, regional investigations, and cooperation with other former Tanoan-influenced territories, including [[Liberia]], [[Namibia]], and [[Jubaland]].<ref name="liberia-transition"/><ref name="namibia-collapse"/><ref name="jubaland-trials"/>
