Joined the people of Madagascar for the country's 66th Independence Day celebrations at Barea Stadium in Antananarivo.
Kenya identifies with Madagascar's journey to independence. Our nations are united by a shared history of resistance to colonial rule and by the determination of our people to shape their own destiny.
That shared experience continues to define our commitment to sovereignty, unity, and the conviction that Africa's future will be built through partnership among its nations.
Today, we celebrate the resilience of its people and the steady progress they have made in building a stronger, more prosperous nation. This anniversary honours not only the hard won freedom of the past, but also the continued pursuit of progress, prosperity, and a better future for all.
We value our longstanding friendship with Madagascar and remain committed to deepening our partnership for the benefit of our people. Together, we will expand trade and investment, strengthen maritime cooperation, improve connectivity, and unlock the immense potential of the Indian Ocean as a gateway for commerce, innovation, and shared prosperity.
President William Ruto’s presence at the G7 is more than a diplomatic engagement-it is a powerful statement that Africa’s voice matters on the global stage.
As the only African leader at the G7, President Ruto carries not only the aspirations of Kenya but also the hopes of over 1.4 billion Africans seeking greater opportunities, stronger partnerships and a fairer global future.
Kenya is rising. Africa is being heard. The world is listening.

Men for men. Good people do exist. There's a group of young men who came together and built this decent semi permanent house for a man whose wife left because of poverty. Wanaume hukipitia. Aliachwa na watoto wawili wadogo.
Accessible knowledge centres have the power to empower citizens, foster lifelong learning, and create opportunities for young people to thrive.
Alongside the First Lady of Finland, I visited the Oodi Helsinki Central Library during our State Visit to Finland. More than a library, Oodi is a remarkable public space that brings together learning, creativity, innovation, and community engagement under one roof.
As Kenya continues to advance its education and community development agenda, such experiences reaffirm the important role that inclusive public institutions play in building informed, resilient, and prosperous societies.
Finnish President Alexander Stubb.
“Kenya is an active and influential player in promoting stability and economic development both regionally and globally. It is very much middle power, a voice that needs to be heard around the globe”.
