To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what discussions he has had with the Ugandan authorities regarding the return of (a) Dr. Kizza Besigye and (b) Dr. Apollo Milton Obote; and if he will make a statement.
We have had no discussions with the Ugandan authorities specifically about the return to Uganda of Dr. Kizza Besigye or Dr. Apollo Milton Obote. However, we do regularly discuss with Ugandan Ministers and officials issues of political rights. We make clear the importance of political change in Uganda carrying the genuine confidence of the people and their representatives, respecting the rule of law and institutions of governance, and being free from physical intimidation or manipulation.
