President Yoweri Museveni and his Rwandan counterpart Paul Kagame are set to meet today at the Katuna border.
The meeting is a follow up to the Luanda agreement they signed in Angola to resolve the conflicts that have lasted for close to a year now.
The conflicts are hinged on cross accusations between the two countries. Rwanda, among many things, accuses Uganda of aiding rebel groups against their government and illegally arresting her citizens. Uganda, on the other hand, accuses Rwanda of economic sabotage.
The Kagame meeting will also be attended by Presidents João Lourenço of Angola and Felix Tshisekedi of DR Congo, who are playing the role of mediation.
Earlier this week, Uganda handed off 13 Rwandans who had been detained in prisons here. Kigali, on the other hand, released 20 Ugandans.
Museveni and Kagame will have a one-on-one meeting and come up with a way forward.
The main focus of today’s meeting is said to be the resumption of cross-border activities, including the movement of persons and goods.
