BREAKING: Starlink gets license in Uganda

President Museveni has today witnessed the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding and operational license agreement between the Uganda Communications Commission and Starlink.

The president in an X post said this marks "an important step towards the commencement of their operations in Uganda."

He said Uganda's "interest is security, revenue assurance, and proper accountability within the telecommunications sector so that we know who is operating and who the customers are."
