Wetangula Urges Saudi Arabia to Support Kenya’s Peacekeeping and Trade Initiatives

Date:

NAIROBI, Kenya – National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula has called on the Government of Saudi Arabia to enhance its support for Kenya’s peacekeeping initiatives in the East African region.

While hosting Khaled Alzahrani, Wetangula acknowledged Saudi Arabia’s ongoing assistance in stabilizing conflict-affected countries such as Somalia and South Sudan. 

He stressed that sustainable prosperity in East Africa hinges on lasting peace and urged international partners to back initiatives aimed at resolving long-standing regional conflicts.

The leaders also discussed opportunities to expand Saudi Arabia’s market access for Kenyan agricultural products, seeking to strengthen bilateral trade ties. 

In a move to deepen legislative collaboration, both sides agreed to establish a Parliamentary Friendship Group, aimed at fostering inter-parliamentary engagement and reinforcing diplomatic relations between the two nations.
