President Yoweri Museveni has assured the people of Burundi and the
EAC community that the government of Burundi, opposition political
party leaders and civil society organizations have all agreed to
continue with the negotiations unconditionally and expeditiously in
order to reach an agreement on issues affecting the political
situation in Burundi and report back as soon as possible.

Presidents of Burundi namely Mr. Domitien Ndayizeye, Mr. Sylivestre
Ntibantunganya and Mr. Jean Baptiste Bagaza.

in Bujumbura tomorrow Thursday 16th July 2015 to continue facilitating
the talks as requested by the East African Community Summit.

the East African Community was hosted and facilitated by the EAC
secretariat. The meeting was a follow up of the mandate given to
President Museveni by the 3rd Extra-Ordinary Summit of the East
African Community in Dar-es-Salaam on the 6th of July 2015; to lead
and facilitate the dialogue at the highest level in a bid to find a
lasting solution to the current political situation in Burundi. The
EAC leaders also decided to postpone the Presidential election in the
country up to 30th of July to allow for this process.
President Museveni was seen off last evening at Bujumbura
International Airport by his host, President Pierre Nkurunziza. He was
received back home by the Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIGP)
