The Chief of Defence Forces, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, recently hosted a high-level Russian military delegation at the Special Forces Command (SFC) headquarters in Entebbe.
The delegation, sent by the Russian Minister of Defence, was on a mission to explore avenues for enhancing relations between the Russian Armed Forces and the Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces (UPDF).
The meeting, which included Lt. Gen. James Mugira, Managing Director of the National Enterprise Corporation (NEC),the business arm of the UPDF, centered on strengthening cooperation in defence and security between the two nations.
This engagement follows Gen. Kainerugaba’s recent visit to Moscow, where he led a Ugandan military delegation, as mentioned in a post on his X account.
The CDF has been actively involved in discussions with top Russian military officials in recent times, signaling a deepening of ties between the UPDF and the Russian military.
