President Museveni and Rwanda’s Paul Kagame are set for a meeting on Sunday in Angola’s capital, Luanda. The agenda of the meeting is to review efforts that have previously been taken to solve the Rwanda-Uganda conflict. The two countries signed a peace pact in August 2019. Advance teams have already set foot in Luanda. Democratic Republic of Congo’s President Felix Tshisekedi will also be present at the meeting.

DRC has been the overseer of the implementation of the Luanda Memorandum of Understanding.

Kagame said recently that there is some progress toward solving the conflict between the two nations, however, Uganda is still making it hard.

“This is what has happened between Rwanda and Uganda in recent days. We have had hundreds of Rwandans arrested in Uganda. nd we have raised this matter with Ugandan authorities. We have families of hundreds of families coming and appealing to us asking why don’t you ask Uganda to release our people. And that matter has been raised with Uganda repeatedly, several times, by different layers of our administration. I myself travelled there. The families of these people in prison are asking me what I am doing to have their people released and brought back home. These are people who travelled there for business, students studying there, all kinds of things. But nothing happened. In fact, what resulted into the so-called closure of the border — it is not really closed as such. I will tell you the facts and you will make your own conclusion,” he said.

Adding that,  “If these issues are not resolved, we shall not go anywhere.”
