UGANDAN PRESIDENT MEETS RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR TO DISCUSS ISSUES OF MUTUAL INTEREST

Ugandan President, Yoweri Museveni yesterday met Russian ambassador, Vladlen Semi Volos to discuss “issues of mutual interest”.

Museveni gave no further details, but this comes a day after Uganda abstained from voting for a UN resolution condemning Russias invasion of Ukraine.

Sixteen other African countries including South Africa, Angola, Algeria and Mali abstained from the vote.

It would be recalled that President Museveni’s son, Muho Ozi Kaine Rugaba had on Monday expressed support for the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
