Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni and Sudanese General Mohamed Hamdan Daglo, popularly known as Hemetti, held talks at Museveni’s Rwakitura country home to discuss strategies for ending Sudan’s long-running conflict.
In a statement released from Kampala, Hemetti disclosed his meeting with President Museveni, saying they discussed recent developments in Sudan and the resulting suffering of the Sudanese people.
Hemetti, who arrived in Uganda on Tuesday, also said that he presented his vision to negotiate, stop the war, and build a new Sudan.
He stressed his commitment to the outcomes of the extraordinary meeting of IGAD heads of state and government held in Djibouti on December 9, 2023.
Sources close to the meeting said that Hemetti requested that the direct meeting be attended by IGAD leaders. Initially, the meeting was supposed to be attended by only the President of Djibouti and the Chair of IGAD.
He said he would continue to implement what he committed to, to end the war, alleviate the suffering of the Sudanese people, and restore security and stability to the country.
For his part, President Museveni released a short post on X confirming his meeting with Hemetti.
“During our meeting, he briefed me on the current situation in Sudan,” he added.
The planned face-to-face meeting, which was supposed to occur in Djibouti on December 28th, has been postponed to January, but the exact date remains undisclosed.
