L’addestramento dell’esercito britannico in Kenya è stato annullato poiché il Regno Unito ha rifiutato le licenze da parte del governo keniota

Rock and a hard place.

There should be justice/investigation for the alleged crimes (and also confirmed ones), however removing immunity (which is not absolute to be clear, there are British squaddies who’ve served time in Kenyan prisons) opens up a savage can of worms.

For all its benefits, Kenya is still a poor country with a horrific crime rate and a justice system that is rigged at best with terrible prison conditions. The UK clearly doesn’t want its soldiers rotting away/dying in Kenyan prisons because they got into a scrap in the street because someone tried to rob them.

Kenya is happy to turn a blind eye to the relentless crime in Nanyuki and areas surrounding the training areas to the point BATUK have been forced at times to employ local Masai to recover stolen MoD property, because local police will do F all.

Worth noting Kenya gains literal tens of millions per year into local economies from BATUK who employ hundreds of locals (who they happily train in technical skills that meet Kenyan technical qualifications), spends a small fortune with local vendors and does loads of community outreach.

If Kenya can resolve the security/crime issues local to training areas and Nanyuki and provide guarantees British soldiers will be treated decently by their criminal system I can see the UK agreeing to reducing that immunity further (which again is not absolute and doesn’t always apply).

If not, Kenya will either expect an increase in the cost of training licenses or the UK will begin looking elsewhere.
