Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>President William Ruto has directed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Diaspora to open an embassy in Budapest, Hungary. The process is to begin immediately while the Mission is expected to be up in the next one or two years.<\/p>\n

Ruto spoke on Tuesday when he hosted the Speaker of the Hungarian Parliament, Dr La\u0301szlo\u0301 Ko\u0308ve\u0301r, at State House Nairobi. According to President Ruto, the embassy will help escalate the relations between the two countries.<\/p>\n

The President thanked the Hungarian Government for the Sh6.2 billion support that will go into the setting up of the Dedan Kimathi Comprehensive Cancer Management Centre in Nyeri.<\/p>\n

The funds will also go into the establishment of the Kabonyo Regional Service and Training Centre of Excellence and the rehabilitation of the Ahero Irrigation Scheme in Kisumu County.<\/p>\n

On climate change, President Ruto said Kenya has taken a “robust position at international fora” on the critical matter because the phenomenon poses an existential threat to humanity.<\/p>\n

“The world is at a crossroads: Do we continue with fossil fuels and burn the globe or do we go the clean energy route and save the world?” the President paused.<\/p>\n

Ko\u0308ve\u0301r on his part said the parliaments of the two countries have done a lot in strengthening the relations between Kenya and Hungary, adding that Hungary is keen on mitigating the effects of climate change.<\/p>\n

Kenya’s exports to Hungary include flowers, fruits, vegetables, tobacco and fish with more opportunities in meat, clothing, dairy and pharmaceutical products.<\/p>\n

This comes even as Diplomatic missions, consulars, UN agencies and international organisations in Kenya were given the green light to directly engage Ministries, State departments and agencies without going through the Foreign Affairs Ministry.<\/p>\n

In a letter dated March 1, the Ministry said the decision has been reached for purpose of enhancing efficiency. Under the Vienna Convention on diplomatic relations, all official communication from UN agencies, Missions, Consulars and international organisations must go through the Ministry of Foreign affairs of the receiving country.<\/p>\n
