The Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF) has with immediate effect suspended all ongoing defence and military cooperation activities with the Federal Republic of Germany.
This was revealed by the Acting Director Defence Public Information, Col. Chris Magezi in an official statement shared on Sunday, 25th May, 2025.
According to Magezi, the decision is in response to credible intelligence reports that the current German Ambassador to Uganda His Excellency Mathias Schauer is actively engaged in subversive activities in the country.
“The suspension will remain in force until the full resolution of the matter of the Ambassador’s involvement with hostile pseudo political-military forces operating in the country against the Ugandan government” says Magezi.
Earlier UPDF had issued a statement saying there is an emergence of rebel cells especially in Central Uganda, and the German Ambassador is involved.
