H.E. President William Samoei Ruto, accompanied by the Prime Cabinet Secretary and Cabinet Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, H.E. Dr. Hon Musalia W Mudavadi, arrived in Helsinki, Finland, for a State Visit at the invitation of H.E. President Alexander Stubb.

The visit follows President Stubb’s historic State Visit to Kenya in May 2025 and marks an important milestone in the deepening of the longstanding and cordial relations between Kenya and Finland. It is expected to further strengthen cooperation in trade, investment, innovation, education, peacebuilding, and multilateral diplomacy.

During the visit, President Ruto will hold bilateral talks with President Stubb focused on advancing collaboration in education, technology and digitalisation, clean energy, environmental sustainability, health, and peace and security. The discussions are also expected to pave the way for new partnerships and agreements that will further enhance bilateral relations and expand economic cooperation between the two nations.

President Ruto will also participate in the Kenya–Finland Business Forum at the Nokia Executive Experience Center in Espoo, bringing together investors and business leaders to explore opportunities in technology, clean energy, manufacturing, innovation, and value addition, with the aim of attracting investment, creating jobs, and fostering sustainable economic growth.

In addition, the President will take part in the Kultaranta Talks, Finland’s premier foreign and security policy forum. The inclusion of Africa as a key pillar of this year’s discussions presents a valuable platform for Kenya to articulate the continent’s priorities on peace and security, sustainable development, and reforms to the international system.

The President will further engage with members of the Kenyan diaspora community in Finland, in recognition of their important contribution to national development through remittances, investment, skills transfer, and the strengthening of people-to-people ties between Kenya and Finland.
