Uganda Finally Takes Sides In The Russia-Ukraine Crisis

Posted by: Eninu William in Uganda news March 3, 2022

As many countries especially from the West continue to condemn Russia for invading Ukraine, a number of countries from Africa and other continents have so far been quiet about the situation.

It however seems Uganda has shown the side on which she falls in this crisis. And of course, as expected, it’s on the Russian side.

The Russian Embassy in Uganda took to its Twitter page to reaffirm this “relationship”. They said the Ugandan national television UBC has special times allocated to broadcasting Russian content.

This is mainly from the National Russian television RT.

Of course, UBC has been broadcasting this content, but the need to reaffirm this shows the solidarity between the two countries. The tweet further urges people to stay tuned if they want unbiased information as it happens.

“The Russian Embassy informs that the Ugandan TV channel @ubctvuganda broadcasts Russia’s state-run TV channel – Russia Today @RT_com daily from 10 am till 11 am & from 11 pm till 3 am.

❗️ Stay tuned if you are interested in receiving an unbiased information on world events,” the Russian embassy tweeted.

Muhoozi Kainerugaba’s comments

The Commander of the Land Forces Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba had also a few days ago come out to show his support for Russia.

Muhoozi said that majority of non-whites are behind Russian claims in Ukraine.

Meanwhile, the Balkan state is currently facing more sanctions. Giant cable TV DStv announced that they had cut off the Russian Television channel-services due to the European Union sanctions on the Putin-led country.

It’s not only countries that have continued to condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine but also big financial situations.

Russia however continues to advance into the interior territories of Ukraine and shows no sign of slowing down.
