| [Garowe] Kenyan President William Ruto seems to have changed his anti-China campaign where he vowed to deport all Chinese, a tactic that he used while campaigning for the country’s top seat. His anti-China was term xenophobic by some of his political opponents and especially the Chinese were afraid that Dr. Ruto being elected to the presidency will mark an era of anti-China movement in Kenya. But once he was sworn in the president seemed to have taken a different tear on China. Just days after being sworn in, Dr. Ruto held a meeting with Liu Yuxi, China’s special representative on African affairs where he assured the Asian giant that his government will continue working with China. |
