Abstract

The European Union’s insistence on Economic Partnership Agreements with individual countries, as its principal trade policy instrument for relations with Africa, undermines its support for the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA). This in turn weakens prospects for a continent-to-continent free trade area between Africa and the EU.
