Introducing LOP to Russian Duma MPs, Speaker @ObothOboth joked: This is the man who opposes everything we do in Parliament. So I brought him to oppose us here, even.
Russians said bringing Opposition shows shared values across party lines, their own team also has opposition MPs.

Our attendance at this Forum further enhances our continuous mission of constructing bi-lateral relations with global parliaments.
Parliamentary diplomacy is not ceremony. It is how we open doors to trade, investment, skills and technology for Uganda. Most importantly, it is how we ensure that Africa’s voice is heard where decisions are made.
I therefore, look forward to sharing Uganda’s perspective and building partnerships that deliver for our people.
I thank the Speaker of the Lok Sabha, Shri Om Birla, for the warm welcome. Uganda and India enjoy excellent relations, while bilateral trade stands at $1.35 billion.
The Indian business community, numbering between 25,000 and 27,000, contributes about 65 percent of Uganda’s income tax. We are here to build partnerships that bring trade, investment and skills home to Ugandans.
