Kampala: Landlocked Uganda on Saturday announced plans to export its future crude oil production via a new pipeline to built through Tanzania rather than Kenya.

"We have agreed that the oil pipeline route be developed from Uganda in Hoima to the Tanzanian port of Tanga," Uganda foreign affairs minister Sam Kutesa told AFP.
