Politicians' website on November 3. Kenya reached a trade agreement with the UK on Tuesday, despite opposition from its regional trade partners. The agreement will invalidate Kenya's approval of the economic partnership agreement (EPA) between the European Unio and the East African community (EAC). Kenya is the only EAC country to ratify the agreement. The agreement will ensure that Kenya will not face new tariffs after brexit, while allowing British companies operating in Kenya to continue to export duty-free to the UK. The other five members of EAC, including Burundi, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda and South Sultan, expressed their opposition to Kenya's agreement with Britain alone.
