President William Ruto has advocated for increased bilateral cooperation between the US and Kenya in commercial engagements.
Ruto said following the recent demonstration of her democratic maturity in the just concluded polls, Kenya is ready for investment and strategic partnerships with the U.S business community.
"Investors can predict the future of Kenya because it’s a democratic country. We have demonstrated as the people of Kenya, that the rule of law underpins public affairs,” the President said.
He was speaking in New York at a high-level business round-table meeting hosted by the US Chamber of Commerce on trade and investment relationships between Kenya and the US.
He said he is looking forward to the partnership to enhance Kenya’s economic and social transformation.
Ruto also held business meetings about fertiliser production and green energy to enhance Kenya’s agricultural production, job creation and development of a resilient economy.
He was also a guest of honour at the Africa Investment Partnership Forum hosted by the United Nations Development Programme which was attended by leaders from the private sector, international development organisations and diplomats.
The evening discussions centered on moving Africa from aid to investment.
Ruto will Wednesday night deliver Kenya’s statement at the United Nations General Assembly at approximately 9pm Kenya time.
