The Trump administration Tuesday provided formal notification to Congress that it would start trade talks with Kenya in 90 days. “Under President [Donald] Trump’s leadership, we look forward to negotiating and concluding a comprehensive, high-standard agreement with Kenya that can serve as a model for additional trade agreements across Africa,” U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer said in a statement.
He said the administration will work with Congress on negotiating principles for the deal.
USTR said it would publish the negotiating objectives for the talks at least 30 days before they begin.
