President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi received Yoweri Museveni, President of the Republic of Uganda, today at Al-Ittihadiya Palace. They discussed ways to advance and strengthen bilateral relations between the two brotherly countries, in addition to a number of regional and international issues of common interest.
President Sisi assured President Museveni of Egypt's full support for development efforts in Uganda and other countries in the Southern Nile Basin, and "our readiness to contribute to financing the Angololo Dam project between Uganda and Kenya," through the mechanism Egypt launched to invest in infrastructure projects in the Nile Basin, with an initial funding of $100 million.
