Kenya, US to resume trade talks next week, minister says
NAIROBI, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Kenya and the United States will resume negotiations in Washington next week in search of a bilateral trade deal, the Kenyan trade minister said on Wednesday.
The talks will be held from Monday through to Thursday, Lee Kinyanjui said in remarks shared by his office, followed by one or two meetings after that "to firm up deliberations".
The East African nation, which exported goods worth $737 million - or 10% of its total exports - to the U.S. in 2024, held talks with Washington last August to safeguard market access, seeking to conclude a process that started in 2020 during President Donald Trump's first term.
New talks were opened under President Joe Biden's administration on a trade and investment partnership aimed at lifting non-tariff barriers but were not completed before Trump returned to office last year.
