The aftermath of President Uhuru Kenyatta's trip to the G7 summit in Taormina, Italy, last month is, perhaps, a good time to take stock of Kenya's foreign relations.

In the last month or so, President Kenyatta has met the world's nine most powerful leaders. In London, he met British Prime Minister Theresa May. In China for a major infrastructure summit, he met Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin. At the G7 in Italy, he met the Presidents of the US, France, the German Chancellor, and the Prime Ministers of Canada, Japan, and host Italy.
