Economic Partnership Agreements

A special relationship of cooperation has long existed between the European Union (EU) and the African Caribbean and Pacific Group (ACP) of countries. Such cooperation was in fact referenced in the founding document of the European Economic Community (EEC), the Treaty of Rome, in 1957. In 1975 the first Lomé Convention was signed and the ACP Group was formed as a result.
