Russia & Uganda Launch New Military Facilities (Photos, Video) by WriterNig(op): 2:38pm On Oct 25
🇷🇺 🤝🏻 🇺🇬 Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni commissioned new Russian-backed military facilities, including a $53 million repair center, to strengthen national defense.

This cooperation would help build local capacity, eventually manufacture defense equipment domestically, he emphasized.

The president also urged to embrace advanced technologies like AI.
🇺🇬 Ugandan President Musuveni posted;
This week, I commissioned military facilities and equipment at Kalama, Entebbe, Kalangalo and Magamaga under our defence cooperation with Russia.

I thank President Putin and the Russian people for this support, including the $53 million mechanised repair facility at Magamaga. We must not only acquire good equipment but also learn to maintain, repair and eventually manufacture it here.

I have encouraged our military to embrace science and technology, including AI and automation, to strengthen our defence capabilities.

Our cooperation with Russia should help us build local capacity, protect our sovereignty and strengthen our ability to defend Uganda.

The mumu African countries supplying Russia with soldiers which Putin is using as canon fodders in his senseless war with Ukraine, so this is the reward for thousands of Ugandan men being wasted in Ukraine fighting for Russia, so sad African leaders refused to wise up angry

😂 🤣 😭 🤣 😂 🤣

More foreign soldiers are fighting for Ukraine than for Russia. Even ISIS members are fighting for Ukraine. Nigerians too are fighting for Ukraine and I have ample evidence.

Your NATO friends refused to help you against Iran, that's why you're mad.

Despite fighting Iran with the help of Israel & 7 Gulf countries, you're still asking the world to help you.

Your America begged Japan, South Korea, Australia and the entire world to help you. Remain small dem for beg Burundi.

Your America fought poor Afghanistan with the help of 30 NATO countries, yet they lost.

You're bitter about countries sending troops to help Russia yet you're cheering the US forming a 32 country alliance that regularly send troops fight for the US.

Infact the US is the only NATO member that the entire NATO countries have sent troops to help them fight.

Europe is on its way to expiration as Muslim Jihadists are gradually taking over Europe and United Kingdom, so NATO is literarily dead without the great United States of America cool


Russia's invasion of Ukraine exposed Russia to the world and made the rest of the world to realize that Russia is nothing but a paper tiger living on past glory under USSR, no wonder Putin kept threatening to use his outdated nuclear weapons that may not detonate when finally launched undecided

If you want peace you must be prepared for war.

The most prosperous countries in the world today are also the most armed countries.

Do you think that is a coincidence??

Nigeria must work to kick out France from nigeria. We have nothing against France or French people. But Tinubu the french puppet must take care of Nigerians first before taking care of france.

Lemme school your ignorant & uneducated ass.

Ukraine is the second largest country in Europe after Russia.

Ukraine has the second largest land army in Europe after Russia. Larger than France and Germany combined.

So far, Ukraine has received more than $500 billion worth of military equipment. That is 3 times bigger than Russia defense budget.

That is bigger than the GDPs of at least 100 countries.

Yes.

Saudi Arabia is the biggest US ally in the Middle East by the way.

They've bought billions upon billions of US weapons, yet they can't defeat ragtag Houthis.

Why buy military equipment from a country that can't even use those equipment to win on its backyard

Shouldn't common sense tell you those equipment are junks

Dem dey even collect wotowoto from Mali jihadist
Even Chinese equipment are more durable and reliable than Russia ones
Proven in the recent Pakistan and Indian air skirmish

Why can't African leaders think logically
Re: Russia & Uganda Launch New Military Facilities (Photos, Video) by Ankakh: 3:34pm On Oct 25
Hmmm. Russia is making lots of inroad in Africa, especially with their military assets. Hopefully African leaders understand that it's a function of interests and not benevolence, and act accordingly.
