Foreign Media: German Chancellor Merkel said that the EU and India may reach a free trade agreement by early January. If the negotiations are completed in time, EU officials will go to India to sign the agreement. This agreement is expected to reshape the global trade landscape, reducing reliance on China and the United States.
The EU hopes to cut tariffs on products such as cars, medical equipment, and alcoholic beverages, while India hopes its labor-intensive products can gain duty-free access to the EU market. Germany also urged India to reduce its reliance on Russian energy and weapons.
