Speaking at the closing session of the second Uganda-Kenya Joint Permanent Commission (JPC) at the Sheraton Hotel on Tuesday afternoon, Kenya’s Cabinet Secretary for Foreign Affairs and Diaspora, Mr Musalia Mudavadi, said the state visit would provide the two countries with “an excellent opportunity to exchange views and review progress on the many bilateral, regional and international issues of mutual interest.
“It is my desire that the issues on Non-Tariff Barriers that have continued to hamper cross-border trade between our countries are further discussed at length and a conclusive position reached to enable the augmentation of bilateral trade,” Mudavadi said.
He added:
“It is also imperative to address other outstanding issues relating to, immigration, boundary reaffirmation which has progressed at a slow pace due to challenges related to funding, thereby impacting on the programme of action, and other cross-border matters are addressed at the earliest.”
The talks saw numerous conversations that will enable the two countries better themselves economically and even improve relations.
