WASHINGTON – The United States today terminated Burkina Faso from the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) trade preference program for failing to meet the requirements of the AGOA statute. The Biden-Harris Administration is deeply concerned by the unconstitutional change in government in Burkina Faso. Burkina Faso will be provided with clear benchmarks for a pathway toward reinstatement and the Administration will work with their government to achieve that objective.
