Paraguay stopped selling bananas to Argentine importers due to unpaid imports and racking debts.

The Argentine Central Bank is responsible to convert ARS to USD for all import requests but has consistently been proritizing only importers which are friends of the ruling government, while those who aren't continue to wait for months on end as debts continue to stack and more suppliers deny new stock deliveries until their debts are paid.

🇬🇧🇺🇸🇺🇬 UK, US issue fresh security alert on Uganda

The British High Commission in Uganda has warned of “a growing terror threat in Uganda, including targeting of foreigners”, hours after the US embassy issued a similar alert.

Both diplomatic missions on Tuesday warned their citizens against attending large gatherings, including worship activities.

They also cautioned against participation in music and cultural festivals, ahead of the popular Nyege Nyege festival on Thursday.

The UK government has also advised its citizens against visits to the Semuliki National Park and Queen Elizabeth National Park, where a British and South African couple and their Ugandan guide were killed by the ADF terrorists.

🇺🇬🇬🇧🇺🇸 Uganda's President Museveni criticises US, UK for security advisories

Uganda's President Yoweri Museveni denounced the United States and UK for issuing adverse security advisories to their citizens in Uganda, and accused both countries of creating and conserving insecurity in Africa.

The U.S. and UK both issued travel warnings urging their citizens not to travel to Jinja town in eastern Uganda to attend a cultural festival that was held over the weekend, with the UK citing the killing of tourists and the risk of threats against foreigners.

Museveni said the British and the Americans were panicking and making a mistake in issuing unwarranted advisories.

"These advisories by some of these actors is another form of interference in our internal affairs by these elements. Moreover, part of the terrorism in Africa is either created or conserved by some of the actors that try to be global policemen," Museveni said.
