ISTANBUL (AA)— The Uganda People's Defence Force (UPDF) suspended all defense and military cooperation with Germany "with immediate effect," a military official announced on Sunday.
The decision was taken in response to "credible intelligence reports that the current German Ambassador to Uganda His Excellency Mathias Schauer is actively engaged in subversive activities in the country," Col. Chris Magezi, acting director of Defense Public Information, claimed in a statement on X.
Magezi said the suspension will remain in effect until the "full resolution" of the matter involving Schauer's alleged ties to "hostile pseudo political-military forces" operating in the East African country against Uganda's government.
