On #GandhiJayanti, we remember Mahatma Gandhi and the values he stood for.

These principles are as relevant as ever, shaping our shared work toward a more just and peaceful world.

Always a pleasure to meet 🇮🇳 Minister and friend @PiyushGoyal. Swift ratification and implementation of our EU-India FTA are top of mind for us. Both sides stand to gain big.

Fellini or De Sica? Godard or Truffaut? 👀

We took European cinema to the streets of Delhi, and let’s just say, people had some strong opinions!

The EU's new ambassador to India, Jean-Eric Paquet, says the long-awaited free trade agreement will create "one economic space" of two billion people and show that rules-based trade still matters. Speaking to WION's @sidhant, he expects a signature around year-end and entry into force in the first half of next year. He also spoke about defence ties, the Ukraine war and China.
