Despite the physical distance between Australia and Kenya, we have much in common. Our lands are richly endowed with natural resources but we also see nature at its most cruel. From droughts and floods in Kenya, to devastating bushfires in Australia, we both understand the havoc such events can cause. Now faced with a global pandemic that respects no borders and affects our citizens, it is clear our interests are more aligned than ever.
Ensuring global security, peace and prosperity for all our citizens underpins our foreign policy. Ours is a relationship based on a desire for fairness, the rules-based order and a mutual commitment to multilateralism.
