President Yoweri Museveni on Tuesday welcomed Daniel Francisco Chapo to Uganda during the Mozambican leader\u2019s first official visit to the country.<\/p>\n
The meeting took place at State House Entebbe, where the two leaders held discussions on matters of national and regional importance, with a particular focus on security cooperation and strengthening bilateral relations between Uganda and Mozambique.<\/p>\n
Museveni said Uganda values its longstanding historical ties with Mozambique, especially the support extended to FRONASA fighters during Uganda\u2019s liberation struggle.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe appreciate the historic relationship between Uganda and Mozambique, especially the support Mozambique extended to FRONASA fighters who trained in Montepuez during the liberation struggle,\u201d Museveni said.<\/p>\n
The Ugandan leader noted that the discussions also covered continued cooperation between the two countries in regional peace and stability efforts.<\/p>\n
Mozambique played a notable role in supporting African liberation movements during the anti-colonial struggles across the continent, with Montepuez serving as one of the training grounds for fighters linked to Museveni\u2019s Front for National Salvation (FRONASA).<\/p>\n
President Chapo\u2019s visit comes amid Uganda\u2019s ongoing diplomatic engagements with regional leaders following Museveni\u2019s inauguration ceremony, which attracted several heads of state and senior government delegations from across Africa.<\/p>\n
The two countries maintain cooperation through regional bodies and shared continental initiatives aimed at promoting security, economic integration, and political collaboration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
