President Yoweri Museveni Sunday poured cold water on reports that his relationship with President Paul Kagame has gone from bad to worse.
President Museveni called on President Kagame for talks in Kampala on various items including the reported tensions between the two countries.
In their deliberations, Uganda leader told the media the tensions were created by rumour mongers.
President Museveni said: “There’s no fundamental conflict between Rwanda and Uganda, we don’t even have a border problem like that of Kenya.”
The President revealed: “We discussed that issue (on Rwandan citizens being harassed) and the solution is close cooperation.”
President Museveni further said: “When I met his excellency in Addis Ababa he gave me a list of facts [on Rwandans being detained in Uganda] and today I’ve been able to respond to all of them.”
Rwanda President Kagame added his voice: “There are so many things said out of context, we have agreed to have institutions on both sides work together to go deep down into the matter and get the right information.”
