    What is the link between Kenya and Haiti? They arent exactly neighbours?

      There’s no direct link between the two countries. It’s been argued that Kenya wants to increase its presence on the global stage and sees a peacekeeping/law enforcement mission in Haiti as an opportunity to showcase its capabilities in that space.

        Makes sense, thanks. I did a another article this morning about Kenya and the US building closer ties, so perhaps related to that.
