Kanya may purchase oil from Russia. This indication has come from President William Ruto at a time when a number of nations, notably the United States, avoided engagement with Russia on account of its invasion of Ukraine. It is reported that President Ruto hinted that he would be exploring all possibilities in an effort to rein in the increasing fuel prices.
