Burundi’s Foreign Affairs Minister, Ambassador Albert Shingiro said the border between the East African country and Rwanda has been reopened.
Recall the border was closed for about six years, first, it was amid political tensions and later during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Shingiro declared this during a press conference saying, Burundi would maintain its position of calling on Rwanda to return coup plotters who allegedly fled after trying to overthrow former President Pierre Nkurunziza in 2015.
