Ethiopia losing access to tax free access to US market (AGOA)

Good riddance - I take it as a blessing in disguise - YES it is painful - but as one brave American solider rightly puts it ~ "Pain is weakness leaving the body." - we shall endure - come out of this stronger than ever!

Ethiopia has used Agoa, which gives most African states tariff-free access to some products into the US market, as a catalyst for its manufacturing strategy. It exported $245m worth of goods to the US under Agoa last year, more than 40 per cent of its total exports there.
