The Atlantic Council posted on 5 February 2020 a summary of Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta's remarks on that date titled "Kenyan President Says Global Leaders Must See Africa as 'the World's Biggest Opportunity'" by David A. Wemer.
In wide ranging remarks in Washington, President Kenyatta also commented on US-China relations as they concern Africa. He said "we don't want to be forced to choose" between Beijing and Washington; "we want to work with everybody." Kenyatta added that Beijing and Washington both offer important economic advantages for Kenya and can both be worked with to achieve strong sustainable growth.
