Everything but Arms

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Everything but Arms
An agreement between the European Union and the world's 49 least developed countries. Under the agreement, all exports except weapons from these countries may enter the EU without paying any tariffs or going through any other trade barriers. The Everything but Arms agreement came into effect in 2001, but a few commodities (bananas, sugar and rice) were still subject to tariffs until the mid- and late-2000s.

As sweet as sugar: sugar prices appear to enjoy significantly more ... by Morgan, M.J. / African Business
Mandy's aides plausibly argue that Brussels is being ultra-flexible, offering the ACP three options: full regional EPAs, including free access to EU markets; a deal on market access with negotiations on the rest during 2008; and, at worst, GSPs for poorer countries guaranteed market access under the Everything But Arms arrangements (but tariff increases of up to 50% for the rest).
