I would respectively submit that the location of the archives is a minor issue. The archives of the Tribunal are electronic. Most users will want to use the archives electronically. And there can be multiple copies of electronic archives in different venues, so the United Nations and Rwanda could each have an archive. Even better, an online repository with sufficient bandwidth will give everyone in the world access who requires it. There are protection issues with some of the documents and those will have to be addressed thoroughly before any archive leaves the possession of the United Nation.
