See what Russian President VLADMIR PUTNI has vowed to do to Kenya after RUTO declared support for Ukraine?

Barely a day after the United States Pentagon revealed that Kenya was an active member of the Ukraine Defence Group, Russia stated that it would maintain a cordial relationship with Kenya.
This was communicated by the Russian Ambassador to Kenya Dmitry Maksimychev on the occasion of marking Diplomats Day.

In a statement, Maksimychev stated that Africa was a high-priority region for Russia in terms of foreign policy.

The Ambassador emphasised that as far as Kenya was concerned, Russia was making every effort to develop cooperation between the two countries.

“Our trade grows steadily as I understand according to the Kenyan statistics, the trade volume between Russia and Kenya has reached $500 million (Ksh81 billion),” Maksimychev stated.

He added that Vladimir Putin’s government was doing everything possible to increase trade volumes between Kenya and Russia.

“Russia is ready to cooperate with Kenya in every field that is of interest to the Kenyans themselves,” Maksimychev promised.

The ambassador noted that areas of cooperation in trade centred on agricultural products, chemicals, fertilisers, and construction materials among others.

On Africa in general, Maksimychev pointed out the Africa-Russia summits held in 2017 and 2023 as an indicator that Moscow highly prioritised Africa in its Russian foreign policy.

“Both events played an extremely important role in the expansion of our partnership with Africa,” he remarked.
