Defence CS Duale host Ukrainian Ambassador at Andrii Pravednyk DoD, Nairobi
The Ministry of Defence Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale has today hosted the Ukranian Ambassador to Kenya His Excellency Andrii Pravednyk at his Department of Defence (DoD) headquarters offices in Nairobi.
The two leaders discussed various issues on defence cooperation between the two States as well as peace, security and stability of the two nations.
Further, the leaders explored areas of possible future cooperation for the mutual benefit of the citizens of their citizens.
Ukraine is currently fighting to regain control of the territories captured by the Russian forces in a full blown war that began last year after Russia invaded Ukraine.
The international community has maintained a soft approach in resolving the conflict with the United Nations seemingly handicapped in exploiting good offices to resolve the conflict.
Russia is this month assuming the leadership and presidency of the United Security Council (UNSC), one of the six UN principal organs and charged with maintaining international peace and security.
This gives Russia which is also one of the five UNSC permanent members and exercises veto power the leverage to control the decisions pertaining to the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
