Ubwo buhahirane bwitwa EPAs (Economic Partnership Agreements).
Kuva muri 2005 nibwo ibi bihugu bya EAC n’ibya EU byumvikanye yuko amasezerano nk’ayo yasinywa binahana n’itariki ntarengwa, ya 30 uku kwezi kawa cyenda. Ibihugu bigize EAC byagombaga gusinyira ayo masezerano icyarimwe ariko biza kwicamo ibice, aho u Rwanda na Kenya byasinye ayo masezerano mu ntangiriro z’uku kwezi.
Ukuyemo Sudan y’Amajyepfo yinjiye muri EAC ejo bundi, ibindi bihugu bisigaye bitarasinya ayo masezerano ni Uganda, Tanzania n’u Burundi.
Ariko Minisitiri wa Uganda ushinzwe ubucuruzi, Amelia Kyambadde mu mpera z’ukwezi gushize yatangarije Nairobi muri Kenya yuko igihugu cye nacyo cyarangije gufata icyemezo cyo gusinya ayo masezerano, hakaba hasigaye Tanzania n’u Burundi bitanga impamvu zitandukanye ariko iy’u Burundi ikaba yumvikana kurushaho !
Nyuma y’uko u Rwanda na Kenya bisinya ayo masezerano, Minisitiri w’u Burundi ushinzwe ibibazo bya EAC, Leontine Nzeyimana yavuze yuko bo ibyo EPAs bitabareba ngo kuko n’ubundi umuryango w’ibihugu by’u Bulayi (EU) utabemera.
