This war which has been ongoing for a number of days has sparked off widespread criticism for the parties involved directly and indirectly but more especially for Russia.
Most countries especially the West and pro-West have come out to condemn Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a sovereign state. However, according to Muhoozi, the majority especially non-whites support Russia’s invasion.
Muhoozi added that Putin is absolutely right to attack Ukraine. Muhoozi’s reason was just the same as that given by Russian apologists and sympathizers.
This is due to the fact that when the USSR put missiles in Cuba in the Cold War era, the West was ready to go to war with the Soviet Union. Russia however agreed to withdraw these missiles in order to de-escalate the situation.
And when the West (NATO) is planning to do the same which would endanger Russia’s security, everyone is blaming Russia for aggression.
“The majority of mankind (that are non-white) support Russia’s stand in Ukraine. Putin is absolutely right! When the USSR parked nuclear-armed missiles in Cuba in 1962 the West was ready to blow up the world over it. Now when NATO does the same they expect Russia to do,” Muhoozi expressed his support for Russia and Putin.
A number of sanctions and condemnations have continued to rain on Russia. These are majorly from the West and big monetary Organizations.
They feel that crippling Russia’s economy will somehow bring Putin to his knees and give in.
He however seems not yet ready to bow to anyone’s pressure as he continues to make advances inside Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had earlier on revealed that NATO countries had failed to answer him directly. This was in regards to whether Ukraine will be admitted into NATO and when.
The situation remains tense for now as Ukraine hasn’t yet consented to talks with Russia.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
