    Notably, the EU trade agreement isn’t just about trade. It also contains “a development perspective” for Kenya, Stender said. Kenya has agreed to enforce binding commitments related to environmental protection, climate action, fighting gender inequality and strengthening labor rights.

    This trade deal looks to be an all-around good thing and it’s great to see this in here! It’s yet another example of using free trade to promote human rights and make the world a better place.
