President Museveni held back-to-back meetings with the US and UK ambassadors at State House Entebbe, marking an eventful day of diplomacy amidst rising tensions in the region.
The meetings, attended by Uganda’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Mr. Adonia Ayebare, sparked speculation regarding the key topics discussed, including the ongoing M23 insurgency in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the suspension of US AID, and the controversial military trial of opposition leader Dr Kiiza Besigye.
Neither the Ugandan Presidency nor the respective missions in Uganda provided any details on the discussions.
However, speculation was rife that the M23 capture of Goma, the capital of North Kivu in eastern DR Congo, and regional security concerns were high on the agenda of a high diplomatic meeting that was confirmed by President on his official X account. END
