Staff comments

In December 2015, Kenya received a donation of 5,800 tents from the Chinese government. It is believed that donation is linked to this pledge, as no other evidence of Chinese involvement in the repatriation of Somali refugees in Kenya could be found (See: Kenya receives 5,800 tents to repatriate Somali refugees)
