History
On 31 October 1990 Xaveri signed together 16 other youth movements and the Episcopal Pastoral Commission in Rwanda a joint statement condemned the aggression of armed gangs of the NRA and the Ugandan regular Army and especially also the forced enlistment of children for these violent activities.
