America’s response to the crimes of Museveni are only cosmetic because he is a key and most effective player in the Great Lakes Region.
Without him how would the transnational companies access practically for free gold, diamonds, coltan, etc., which they need to make enormous sums of money?
The Western Powers will support him, until the bloody end like they did with the Shah of Iran, Somoza in Nicaragua, Ian Smith in Rhodesia et. al.
NATO could easily destabilize his government like they did in Yugoslavia with Slobodan Milosevic and take him before a Special International Tribunal like Charles Taylor of Liberia.
Museveni was condemned for crimes and looting resources in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda ordered to pay $10 billion. He hasn’t respected the decision.
America said nothing. The U.S. is only hedging its bets with lip service because they know he can’t rule forever.
