Deputy President Kithure Kindiki said Kenya is exploring all aspects of trade and cooperation to strengthen ties with Algeria as it looks to expand relations with more African countries.
Among the foremost areas of cooperation is Education and knowledge exchange which the two nations have focused on and grown over the recent years.
Speaking when he engaged students and professionals living and studying in Algeria, Prof. Kindiki said North African country remains a strong partner noting the increasing trade and the rising number of Kenyans in the country.
“We are going to firm up our bilateral relations because Algeria is keen to buy our coffee, tea, meat, powder milk, avocado, citrus fruits and others.
We need to cement the trade agreement that is why I came with the Trade Minister Lee Kinyanjui,” said Prof. Kindiki.
He was in Algeria to represent Kenya at the ongoing Fourth Intra-Africa Trade Fair in Algiers, Algeria.
He also held bilateral talks with Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune centred on enhancing relations between the two nations.
“We are working to operationalize direct flights between Algiers and Nairobi to ease movement because presently you have to go through Middle East or Europe to reach here,” he noted.
