Washington rolled out the red carpet for Kenya's President William Ruto. The two countries are marking 60 years of diplomatic relations. They are promising to strengthen those ties, starting with security co-operation. President Ruto reiterated his commitment to sending a thousand police officers to help restore order in Haiti. The visit is also important for broader US-Africa relations. Washington appears to be playing catch-up on the continent. China has invested heavily in infrastructure and Russia has increased its military presence after a series of coups in recent years. Can Washington fulfil its new promises? How could African countries benefit?

Stella Agara -- Governance and security analyst who specialises in youth development
David Shinn -- Professor of International Relations at George Washington University and former U.S. ambassador to Burkina Faso and Ethiopia
