Today, the Rt. Hon. (Dr) Speaker of the National Assembly, Moses Wetang’ula, held a high-level engagement with H.E. Amb. Makoloo Maurice, Kenya’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to Austria and the United Nations Offices in Vienna, at Parliament Buildings.
The meeting focused on deepening strategic relations between Kenya, Austria, and the European Union particularly in areas of green energy, agricultural technology, scientific research, and inter-parliamentary collaboration.
“As Kenya expands its footprint in global diplomacy, the role of Parliament remains central in shaping policies and partnerships that uplift the lives of our citizens,” said Speaker Wetang’ula.
The Speaker also emphasized the importance of interfaith dialogue and ethical leadership, noting the value of the Parliamentary Catholic Group in promoting integrity and unity in public service.
Ambassador Makoloo reaffirmed the Vienna Mission’s commitment to championing Kenya’s voice on the global stage, especially through multilateral platforms that support sustainable development and innovation.
Together, we continue to position Kenya as a strong, forward-looking nation rooted in democratic values and committed to partnerships that deliver real impact for the people.
