Kenya's President William Ruto had a telephone conversation with his United States counterpart Joe Biden on Tuesday night, during which the later thanked the leader for Kenya's agreement to lead a UN-backed multinational security mission in gang-ridden Haiti.
The conversation took place at around 8pm, with Biden also congratulating President Ruto on the successful hosting of last month's Africa Climate Summit, where the continent found a common voice on climate change that will be at the forefront of the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference to be held in Dubai in November.
