The United States Trade Representative Katherine Tai confirms that discussions for the US-Kenya Strategic Trade and Investment Partnership (STIP) are ongoing, with no specific deadline set for conclusion or signature.
The proposed trade agreement aims to protect Kenya’s trade interests in the event of the African Growth and Opportunity Act (Agoa) not being extended beyond 2025.
The US-Kenya trade talks, initiated in July 2022, continue to progress, with the first round of negotiations held in Nairobi, signaling the possibility of a comprehensive free trade deal between the two nations.
A recent report has shown that the United States is unsure when discussions for a free trade agreement with Kenya would be completed, notwithstanding the fact that Nairobi previously stated that the talks would be completed by December.
