AfCTA signed, what happens to Tripartite Area?

[edit]

Now that the African Continental Free Trade Area is ratified, what happens to this Tripartite Agreement? Is AfCTA a replacement or superceding of this earlier agreement? Are they totally different and still in effect? Possibly these all should be merged? In any case some clarification needed on relation between the two agreements. -- B.S.

As I mentioned in the Talk:African Continental Free Trade Area the TFTA will continue and there are no plans yet to terminate it when the AfCFTA is in force. It will also still take a couple of years until it is ratified by 22 members, only then it comes into force. Negotiations will continue this year. It would be much better to merge it with the African Free Trade Zone, that term is not really used and if we merge it into this TFTA article, there will be no confusion with the African Continental Free Trade Area Benjasadler (talk) 11:31, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
