What is behind the newly minted love affair between the neo-colonialist US government and Kenya? How is Kenya closer to US than Ethiopia? And since when?
The Commonwealth of Nations, often simply referred to as the Commonwealth,[4] is an international association of 56 member states, the vast majority of which are former territories of the British Empire from which it developed.[5] The chief institutions of the organisation are the Commonwealth Secretariat, which focuses on intergovernmental aspects, and the Commonwealth Foundation, which focuses on non-governmental relations among member states.[6] Numerous organisations are associated with and operate within the Commonwealth.[7]

President Ruto is scheduled to visit the United States on an official state visit on May 23, 2024, the first time in two decades that an African president has been accorded a state visit in the US.
President William Ruto could make history in the United States if a request to the Speaker is granted. He would be the first Kenyan head of state to address a joint session of Congress, and the first African head of state to address Congress since former Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf eighteen years ago.
It is not far-fetched to assume that they will open another war front against Ethiopia through Kenya, like they are doing against Russia through Ukraine already today.
Ethiopia has one and only one option: strengthen Africa's unity and its self-reliance, drop the association with the relicts of colonial mindsets.
They want to shape Ethiopia into a pariah state, EU imposes restrictions, America strengthens its ties with a close neighbor of the nation.
It all started when Ethiopia managed to subdue the insurrection of TPLF to the north, which was to their utmost dismays.
