Kenya and Rwanda sign the EAC-EU-EPA trade agreement

If the EPA is not signed and ratified by all EAC partner states by September 30, 2016, Kenya – being the bloc’s only [SIZE=4]developing state[/SIZE] - stands to lose its market to the EU, having significant impact on her economy.

The rest of the members have alternative access to EU as they are all classified as[SIZE=5] [SIZE=4]least developed[/SIZE] [/SIZE]countries.

He’s a mega fool.

It’s good that you keep dispensing vital information to us.Mugufuli will finally find himself isolated.By the way how does Kenyatta perceive Magufuli,how is their relationship? Be frank?

I would be lying to everyone and myself if i could tell you that i know that.

The European Union’s ambassador to Kenya, Stafano Dejak, has said the bloc will find a way of agreeing the terms of trade with Kenya if other East African nations fail to sign the Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs) deal by January. The deadline for signing by East African Community (EAC) countries was initially set for October 1 but was moved to January. Only Kenya and Rwanda have signed the EPAs deal that grants the region some privileges to export horticultural products to the European Union without customs charges. But under a deal signed in 2001 and renewed in 2011, all EAC countries have to sign to enjoy the benefits.
