U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Jim Risch has warned that Washington may review its security partnership with Uganda following controversial social media posts by Chief of Defence Forces Lt. General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, son of President Yoweri Museveni.

• Risch stated that Muhoozi "crossed a red line" by accusing the U.S. Embassy in Kampala of aiding opposition leader Bobi Wine, calling Muhoozi’s subsequent apology "hollow."
• The U.S. is considering re-evaluating its security partnership, including potential sanctions and military cooperation, due to the instability and recklessness exhibited.
• The incident comes amidst mounting tensions between Kampala and Washington, with U.S. lawmakers questioning the legitimacy of Uganda’s January 15 presidential election.
