Answer:

Western observers have stated that the RPF prioritized taking power over saving lives or stopping the genocide. The RPF victory was complete when Kigali was captured on 4 July and the rest of the country on 18 July. The RPF's Pasteur Bizimungu was installed as President of Rwanda, with Kagame appointed vice president.
