Kenyan President William Ruto met with former President Barack Obama in Washington, D.C., on Thursday in between a series of meetings with President Joe Biden and his team at the White House.
The Kenyan president’s state visit to Washington will conclude Thursday with a state dinner at the White House.
Earlier in the day, Ruto held a “two-and-two” press conference with Biden where the two leaders pledged to continue to back the Multinational Security Support mission to support Haiti.
The president did stumble into several gaffes during his appearance with Ruto. Biden mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as “President Kamala Harris” and predicted that Africa, a continent that boasts more than 1.4 billion people, would soon surpass a population of 1 billion.
