This was the second meeting between the two leaders after an earlier engagement in late 2022, where the Ambassador alongside German Legislators from the Defence Committee met their Kenyan Counterparts.

Relations between the two countries date back to 1963 when the Federal Republic of Germany became the first country to recognise Kenya under international law after independence.
