"When you've experienced war with all its sounds, smells, chaos, when you've seen people's faces at every stage of life and death, horror and pain - you can't just run away from it," General Dallaire writes in his book.
He suffered severe psychological trauma from the events of the Rwandan genocide thirty years ago. Then, in front of the world community, more than 800,000 people were brutally murdered within six months. The trauma of Dallaire, then Commander of the UN peacekeeping mission, was compounded when the international community ignored all his pleas for help and responded with bureaucracy and apathy.
This terrible story is relevant and important for Ukraine today. Wherever you are and whatever you do, the current war will affect you and change your life and the lives of your loved ones.
The book instantly became a bestseller in the world. General Dallaire's open admission that he suffers from PTSD and his work to protect veterans changed Canadian society. The system of assistance to veterans was radically reformed.
