Abdoulaye Sanoko, Director General of the Agency for the Promotion of Exports Mali (APEX): exportation "We made tie with the Embassy exportation of the United States to boost our trade with this country and benefit from the induced effects of AGOA"
The United States have signed exportation the act allowing Mali to return the train AGOA, after being landed because of the crisis that we are coming out gradually. exportation As Director General of the Agency for the Promotion of Exports Mali (APEX), how would you welcome that? What are the challenges for Mali?
Thank you for giving me an excellent opportunity to react to such an important foreign trade and economy news event. Because, as you know, when a country manages to expand its exports, this translates exportation into an increase in supply and increase in production itself suppose we put in place labor force.
So this news, we learned with great satisfaction, because we know all the benefits that can be derived from this trade regime that the United States exportation has granted a number of African countries since 2000. Following the events of March 22, 2012, our output of what is commonly accepted as a constitutional democracy, we lost the benefit of this preferential policy.
By this very fact, the law AGOA "Economic Growth in Africa", adopted by the U.S. administration under Bill Clinton in 2000, no longer concerned Mali. We knew that the crisis was handled in such a way that with the rapidly changing events on the ground and at the forces of the country, in close relationship with the international community, the end of the tunnel would eventually be reached.

This whole exercise has been conducted in the best conditions. exportation
Before, prospects, after the intervention of forces and African Serval forces under the MISMA then the MINUSMA were also very reassuring to the extent there were agreements for quick management of the recent transition crisis. Mali has therefore given early enough in the right approach to achieve this outcome doubly happy, which can celebrate our country.
This is a potential market access which was somewhat obstructed for us first. Obstructed, I emphasize the word since, during these two years of crisis, Mali continued to trade with the countries exportation of the subregion, and even with all the other usual partners, exportation including the United States. Except that, since we are talking of AGOA, for what was the U.S. market, we had more profit.
This is the place to say a word about AGOA. AGOA is, in fact, a preferential trade regime granted unilaterally in this case by the U.S. administration. Of course, from the moment it is unilateral, we must say that this is not all African countries that benefit from AGOA. To actually benefit from this preferential treatment, there are a number of conditions that a candidate country must fulfill
I cite a few, such as an economic exportation option for taking a liberal policy, which should allow a different
