Top-level Ugandans visiting

Moves to normalise relations between Uganda and Rwanda are continuing. According to the Rwanda News Agency (RNA), a high-ranking Ugandan delegation arrived in Kigali on Sunday for further talks in the aftermath of clashes between the two countries’ armies in Kisangani in August. The delegation, which includes Foreign Minister Eriya Kategaya and Minister of State for Defence Steven Kavuma, is due to meet Rwandan President Pasteur Bizimungu and Vice-President Paul Kagame. “This visit is in the framework of bilateral discussions on how we can further strengthen our relations,” Kagame’s adviser, Emmanuel Gasana, told RNA. Last month, a Rwandan delegation, led by RPF Secretary-General Charles Murigande, visited Kampala. The two sides have produced a joint report on the Kisangani clashes.
