"All low- and middle-income countries are walking a tightrope given the current economic constraints globally. The Kenyan case is being featured because of the Eurobond 2024," the minister told Reuters, referring to a bond maturing next June. "That will not solve the persistent negative shocks that low- and middle-income countries are facing. A more well mapped set of solutions will be needed," he said.
