President William Ruto has urged American businesses to invest in Kenya.
Speaking during a Kenya-US executive business roundtable in New York the President said Kenya’s strong democracy, security, her people and developed infrastructure make a conducive environment for new investments.
Ruto was to make his maiden address at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York today.
According to his Communications Director Hussein Mohamed, Ruto was to deliver Kenya’s national statement at about 2 pm New York Time (9 pm Kenya Time).
Ruto’s first address to the United Nations was to seek to promote Kenya’s foreign policy in the multilateral system, including enhancing participation in the quest for realisation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and global leadership in emerging issues such as climate change.
The Head of State is also expected to lead Kenya’s efforts to strengthen ties with the US guided by the five pillars of bilateral strategic dialogue partnership.
