Bangladesh–Kenya relations

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Tagged for notability since 2016. The cited sources are three government press releases (upon the appointment of an ambassador, upon his presenting his credentials, and when one leader sent a congratulatory message to the other upon her re-election), and one 2012 article speculating that Kenya would buy US$8M worth of jute from Bangladesh "soon".

Relations are much the same as Bangladesh has with most countries: no state visits, no bilateral agreements, and negligible economic ties. The Atlas of Economic Complexity shows 2015 bilateral exports from Bangladesh at $9M (0.03% of total), and from Kenya at $11M (0.2% of total).

Insufficient coverage in third party, reliable, secondary sources to meet WP:GNG. Possibly merge to Foreign relations of Kenya, although I don't see anything more than diplomatic boilerplate here. Worldbruce (talk) 05:52, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep - passes WP:GNG based on these two sources:, ; both are third party reliable sources with indepth coverage discussing bilateral relations between Bangladesh and Kenya. The Kenyan FM has just concluded a visit to Bangladesh this year and signed agreements on education, science and technology as well as on initiating regular foreign office consultations. The national cricket teams of Bangladesh and Kenya have exchanged several bilateral tours, pointing out the extensive cultural relations between the two countries. -- Zayeem  (talk) 00:41, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep I'm of the belief that all bi-lateral relations articles should be kept; per WP:XY there's no redirect target. As Kmzayeem notes, there's sufficient coverage here in any case. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 02:42, 28 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep, I guess, per above. Passes WP:GNG (shown above), and per WP:XY there's no redirect target. Paintspot Infez (talk) 20:14, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
