There's no direct link between the two countries. It's been argued that Kenya wants to increase its presence on the global stage and sees a peacekeeping/law enforcement mission in Haiti as an opportunity to showcase its capabilities in that space.

Makes sense, thanks. I did a another article this morning about Kenya and the US building closer ties, so perhaps related to that.
