From February 20 to 23, 2025, after concluding his participation in the International Exhibition of Armaments and Military Equipment IDEX-2025, Dmitry Pantus, the Minister of the State Authority for Military Industry (SAMI), continued his international tour to countries in the "far arc". 

As part of the official visit of the Belarusian delegation led by Prime Minister of the Republic of Belarus Roman Golovchenko to Uganda, Dmitry Pantus signed a memorandum of understanding with Jacob Marksons Oboth, the Minister of Defence and Veterans Affairs of Uganda.
