Honest question - what does boycotting Uganda look like? As an American who doesn’t dabble in internationall trade, are even ways I could be doing business with Uganda?
Some of their major exports are coffee, cocoa, and gold, oil, sugar, beans, vanilla, tea and fish products.
Other than maybe some brands of coffee, you won’t be able to source any of this stuff, when talking international exports like this, these are goods going directly to manufactures all over the world for packaging and processing and reselling. It’s just something that sounds good on paper, but in reality I doubt there are any vanilla extract factory CEO’s reading Lemmy right now and suddenly standing up in their chair in shock.
