Kenya and Russia have agreed to stop enlisting Kenyans into the Russian military, Prime Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi said on Monday after talks with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Moscow.
The agreement comes weeks after a joint National Intelligence Service (NIS) and Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) report, presented to parliament in February, put the number of Kenyans recruited to fight for Russia in Ukraine at over 1,000, far higher than the figure of around 200 given by authorities in December.
