On X, the army chief announced that all cooperation with the US was suspended. An hour later, he withdrew the statement.
"I would like to apologize to our good friends in the United States for my previous tweets, which I have now deleted," wrote Army Chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba, who is also the president's son, on X.
Bobi Wine accused the government of "blatant theft" in the January 15 election and went underground. According to Kainerugaba's initial post on X, Wine had "kidnapped himself in coordination with the current administration at the US embassy in our country," but Kainerugaba later claimed he had been misinformed.
