I hosted their Excellencies the EU Ambassadors, led by H.E. Jan Sadek, the EU Ambassador to Uganda, today at State House Entebbe for our Partnership Dialogue.
I emphasised that Europe should support Africa to process its raw materials, add value and create jobs. When we earn more from our products, we also create a bigger market for European goods. This is how we become partners in prosperity rather than victims of cooperation.
We also discussed support for PDM, irrigation, wetland protection and affordable electricity for manufacturing. Africaโs prosperity is good for everyone, and our cooperation should be based on mutual benefit and respect for each otherโs sovereignty. I thank them for coming and I enjoyed our long discussion.
