Mr Langley, as the head of the US Africa Command , is responsible for coordinating US military efforts across the continent, including partnering with countries like Kenya to strengthen regional security and address critical threats like terrorism. This Kenya visit builds on a long-standing US-Kenya partnership, reinforcing the mutual commitment to safeguarding the region.

His visit is relevant to the strategic partnership with Kenya and to stability. Kenya has become a key partner in US counterterrorism efforts in the region, particularly in combating the threat posed by al-Shabaab. Langley’s trip had a broader impact. His visit culminated in a tour of US and Kenyan military facilities at Manda Bay, where troops from both countries are stationed. He recognised their critical role in countering terrorism and emphasised the continued importance of military enhancement programs and joint operations.
