"content": "On the area of international trade, regional integration and our relationship with the East Africa Community, there was a delay in signing the Economic Partnership Agreement because the EAC members states were not going to be affected whether they signed it or not, because all of them except Kenya are banded as least developed counties so they can access the European market without any restriction. We call it everything but terms. They can sell anything duty free and quota free without any separate agreement. But for Kenya, without the Intergovernmental Personnel Agreements (IPA) we will be condemned to pay taxes. I am happy now because recently I saw His Excellency the President talking with his counterpart of Tanzania. I am sure discussions are ongoing between our respective ministers to resolve the perceived suspicion and differences that had made it impossible for the Economic Partnership Agreement to be signed. We foresee that the Agreement will be signed. We will then be able to comfort our tea, coffee, and horticulture producers and manufacturers that they will be able to access the EU market, quota free and duty free."
