\u201cI am looking forward to spending three marvelous days in Kenya.\u201d<\/p>\n

Addressing the media at State House, Nairobi on Saturday alongside President Ruto, Musar strongly backed Kenya\u2019s international leadership, especially in advancing multilateralism, peace, and sustainable development.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m more than happy to be here because of one important thing: both President Ruto and I believe deeply in multilateralism,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe must work together, especially within the UN system, to address crises from Europe to the Middle East and Africa, including the war in Ukraine and the humanitarian situation in Gaza.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reforestation, innovation and cooperation<\/h3>\n

President Musar hailed Kenya\u2019s reforestation goal of planting 15 billion trees as \u201ca gift not just to Kenya but to the entire planet.\u201d <\/p>\n

She expressed optimism about scaling up cooperation in artificial intelligence, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and water management, noting that Slovenian firms are already working on ways to improve water efficiency in Kenya.<\/p>\n

\u201cInnovation is always the door to progress. Kenyan people are innovative, and Slovenian people are innovative,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s see what we can achieve together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shared vision for global equity<\/h3>\n

President Ruto welcomed Slovenia\u2019s support, describing the visit as a significant milestone in bilateral relations. <\/p>\n

He emphasized the need to reform global institutions to reflect 21st-century realities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe acknowledged that the multilateral system must evolve to ensure greater equity, inclusivity, and accountability,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe reaffirmed the importance of Africa having permanent representation in the Security Council and discussed the need for a more inclusive and responsive international financial system.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also highlighted Kenya\u2019s preparations to host the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development in July, where both nations aim to champion fairer global financing mechanisms.<\/p>\n
