Uganda is "studying" the possibility of opening an embassy in Jerusalem, President Yoweri Museveni said on Monday, during a visit by
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Such a move would be seen internationally as a statement of support for Israel's claim for the city of Jerusalem to be its capital, a potential political win for Netanyahu less than a month before a national
election on March 2.
"You open an embassy in Jerusalem and I will open an embassy in Kampala," promised Netanyahu.
