Following the enactment of an anti-gay law by the Ugandan Government, Washington on Friday announced it is imposing visa restrictions for Ugandans as it accuses them of "undermining the democratic process" in the country.
A statement from the State Department did not name any targeted individuals.
It said the U.S. will consider other possible actions
"to promote accountability for Ugandan officials and other individuals responsible for, or complicit in, undermining the democratic process in Uganda, abusing human rights, including those of LGBTQI+ persons, or engaging in corrupt practices."
