President Ruto Attends 25th COMESA Summit in Zimbabwe

President William Ruto has arrived in Harare, Zimbabwe, for the 25th Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) Summit.

The summit brings together heads of state and government from COMESA’s 21 member countries to review progress on regional integration and set priorities for trade, investment and industrial development.

Ruto is expected to hand over the COMESA chairmanship to Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa, marking the end of Kenya’s tenure as chair of the regional bloc.

Discussions at the summit will focus on deepening regional integration, strengthening peace and security, and advancing industrialisation, among other key issues.
