Under Secretary of State for Civilian Security, Democracy, and Human Rights Uzra Zeya is traveling to Nairobi, Kenya and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, this week to discuss human rights, democratic governance, and humanitarian cooperation.

State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller said that, in Kenya, Under Secretary Zeya would address “shared solutions to regional and global challenges“ and “underscore the importance of freedoms of peaceful assembly and expression, as well as U.S. support for democratic reforms and refugee inclusion.“

He continued, “In Ethiopia, Under Secretary Zeya will engage leaders from the Ethiopian government, African Union, and civil society on the protection of human rights throughout Ethiopia, the importance of inclusive, transparent transitional justice, and advancing the protections of refugees, displaced persons, and humanitarian workers.“

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

  • For Under Secretary Zeya to be led by the Lord as she meets with foreign dignitaries and ministers.
  • For the president and vice president to seek God’s guidance as they pursue the administration’s goals.
  • For discernment for U.S. officials as they consider strategies to compete with the global influence of China.
