I thank President Paul Kagame for the very warm reception my delegation and I received in Kigali today. We held very cordial and in-depth discussions about how to improve our bilateral relations. I’m confident that under the leadership of our two Presidents we shall be able to quickly restore our historical good relations – Muhoozi

For close to six years, the relations between Uganda and Rwanda have not been at their best.
