BY PATRICK KIMANZI, MP PRESS Editor

NAIROBI - President Uhuru Kenyatta, smarting from a successful visit in the USA, has called for the establishment of a new framework of cooperation with Britain as it exits from the European Union early next year. The President observed that even though Kenya and Britain enjoy a strong relationship, there is need to strengthen the bond further by setting up a working group to lead discussions with a view of coming up with a clearer and stronger framework for cooperation between the two countries.



"I gather there will soon be changes in the United Kingdom’s trading relations; I imagine that only makes the establishment of a Kenya-UK working group all the more opportune," he said. The President spoke on Thursday evening during a State Banquet he and First Lady Margaret Kenyatta hosted in honour of the visiting British Prime Minister Theresa May.

The Head of State observed that Kenya and Britain should anchor on the existing strong trade and commercial ties to build an even more formidable partnership for the mutual benefit of their citizens.
