They also agreed to collaborate in restoring peace in South Sudan.

"We held bilateral talks with President Salva Kiir at State House, who is seized with efforts to de-escalate armed engagements and restore peace in Sudan. We agreed to undertake joint infrastructural projects that will enhance connectivity, further integration, and boost intra-regional trade for our prosperity," said Ruto.

This is the second time the two presidents are meeting for bilateral talks, and the third since Ruto's inauguration ceremony in September last year.
