Latest India-EU FTA round was a "restricted" one, meant to focus on the FTA's "core areas" i.e., market access. EU report says the idea was to get an accurate picture of the Indian positions on these. As @rishabhameena96 highlights, very little progress there. And, no new dates.
Congratulations to @MarosSefcovic for his new mandate! Happy to see that our recommendation to have a Commissioner for Economic Security has materialised!! @nicolaskoehler@sibona_marco @PascalLAMYPPF

@AgatheDemarais I agree with the sentiment, but the number of signed trade agreements doesn't mean much for business realities. E.g., one large RTA can matter much more than twenty small RTAs. The relevant KPIs one must look at closely are RTA preference utilisation rates and MFN vs RTA usage.
