Kenya’s William Ruto Visits US to Meet Joe Biden; What’s at Stake? | Firstpost Africa

Kenya’s President William Ruto is on a state visit to the United States. President Ruto is the first African leader to be hosted for a state visit since US President Joe Biden was elected in 2020. Ruto and Biden will meet for a state dinner at the White House on May 23. Kenya is a key US ally in eastern Africa and the two nations share strong military cooperation as the war in east Africa against Al-Qaeda affiliate Al-Shabab intensifies. Talks between Kenya’s and US Presidents will also focus on debt relief for the African nation. One of Washington’s objectives in scheduling the high-profile visit by the Kenyan President is to counter China’s rising influence in Africa. China is Kenya’s biggest creditor and the African nation has been grappling with liquidity challenges. Watch this video for details.
