Conversely, Kenya stands to gain from Cyprus' expertise in shipping, financial services, and tourism. He also emphasized collaboration on climate resilience, calling for global solidarity with vulnerable states.
In a separate engagement, Mudavadi met Uzbekistan's Foreign Minister, Bakhtiyor Saidov, to sign a landmark cooperation agreement between Nairobi and Tashkent.
The deal covers mining, oil and gas, agriculture, tourism, and investment sectors both countries view as engines of sustainable growth.
"This milestone elevates our partnership to a new level of direct bilateral cooperation. It will serve as a cornerstone for addressing shared challenges and unlocking opportunities for both our nations," Mudavadi remarked.
Kenya and Uzbekistan have traditionally worked together at multilateral forums, but the new pact establishes a direct framework for economic diplomacy.
Mudavadi also held talks with Sierra Leone's Foreign Minister, Timothy Musa Kabba, where discussions focused on strengthening trade, multilateral cooperation, and Kenya's candidature for the International Court of Justice (ICJ). He appealed for support for Professor Phoebe Okowa, who is vying for election as ICJ Judge for the 2025-2027 term.
"Prof. Okowa has been a key voice in shaping international law and continues to champion justice and accountability on the global stage," Mudavadi said.
He further lobbied for Sierra Leone's backing of Kenya's nominee to INTERPOL's Executive Committee, Mr. Mohammed Ibrahim Amin, the current Director of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations.
His election, Mudavadi argued, would strengthen Africa's hand in addressing transnational security threats.
Across the three engagements, Mudavadi projected Kenya as a hub for trade, diplomacy, and innovation while securing commitments that promise to deepen bilateral and multilateral ties.
