Uganda and Bangladesh Sign MoU on Bilateral Consultations

Munyonyo — The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Uganda and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on Bilateral Consultations on the sidelines of the 19th Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) Ministerial Review Conference.

The MoU seeks to further strengthen the friendly and cooperative relations between the two countries and promote collaboration in mutually agreed areas, including political, economic, cultural, and educational cooperation. It also provides a framework for regular exchange of views on regional and international issues of mutual interest.

Under the terms of the agreement, both parties committed to holding regular consultations—at least once every two years—to review the status of bilateral relations and discuss matters of common concern. These meetings will be held alternately in Dhaka and Kampala, or at the Headquarters of the United Nations in New York or Geneva, or at any other mutually agreed international forum.

The MoU was signed by Hon. John Mulimba, Minister of State for Regional Affairs of the Republic of Uganda, and H.E. Touhid Hossain, Foreign Affairs Advisor of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh.

This milestone reflects the shared commitment of both nations to deepen diplomatic engagement, foster mutual understanding, and enhance cooperation for the benefit of their peoples.
