Summary
Uganda’s army has suspended all military cooperation with Germany, accusing Ambassador Mathias Schauer of “subversive activities” and being “wholly unqualified” for his position. This decision follows Schauer’s concerns about army chief Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, who threatened opposition leader Bobi Wine, amid allegations of government repression ahead of the upcoming elections. The army’s claims lack evidence, and the German foreign ministry has dismissed them as “absurd,” emphasizing the need for a resolution regarding Schauer’s alleged involvement with political-military forces against the Ugandan government.
