On this Special Report, the focus is on the landmark Free Trade Agreement (FTA) signed between India and the European Union. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen described the pact as the ‘mother of all deals’, emphasizing that ‘We are creating a market of two billion people and this is the tale of two giants’. The agreement, signed on 27 January 2026, aims to double bilateral trade by 2032 and covers 96.6% of EU export value and 99% of Indian export value. Key highlights include significant duty cuts on European cars, wines, and pharmaceuticals, while providing Indian exporters duty-free access for textiles, footwear, and marine products. Beyond trade, the partnership establishes a new security and defence framework, covering maritime security, cyber threats, and counter-terrorism. The programme also features an exclusive interview with EU High Representative Kaja Kallas on diversifying trade portfolios amidst global geopolitical volatility and the ‘predictability’ of the EU as a strategic partner for India.
