The reconciliation of presidents Yoweri Museveni of Uganda and Rwanda’s Paul Kagame in the Angolan capital Luanda on Wednesday came from an unlikely peacemaker.
Joao Lourenco, the 65-year-old Angolan president who has been in power for less than two years, invited President Museveni, 74, in power for 33 years, and President Kagame, 61, in power since 2000, to Luanda to end almost two years of tension between their countries.
