Kenya has engaged the American lobbying firm Continental Strategy PLLC, which is associated with Carlos Trujillo, a former associate of Donald Trump, to lobby US policymakers in Washington ahead of a planned meeting between Kenyan President William Ruto and former US President Donald Trump. Concurrently, Steve Witkoff, serving as a special envoy for Trump, is actively lobbying for Trump to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Witkoff has publicly described Trump as "the single finest candidate" for the prize, urging the Nobel committee to recognize him. These developments highlight Kenya's strategic diplomatic efforts in the US and ongoing advocacy for Trump’s recognition on the international stage.
