#REDIRECT [[Rwanda Defence Force]] |
|||
The military establishment of [[Rwanda]] comprises an army and a paramilitary gendarmerie. Defense spending continues to represent a disproportionate share of the national budget, largely due to continuing security problems along the frontiers with the [[Democratic Republic of the Congo]] and [[Burundi]] in the aftermath of the war. The government has launched an ambitious plan to demobilize thousands of soldiers. |
