Trade deal to create opportunities for growth and jobs, says Germany
Germany’s finance minister said on Tuesday that the trade deal reached by the European Union and India could accelerate economic growth and deepen strategic ties.
“This agreement creates new opportunities for growth and good jobs — in Europe and India alike — while deepening the strategic partnership with the world’s largest democracy,” Vice Chancellor and Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil said in a statement.
Trade deal expected to double European exports to India by 2032
The European Union (EU) and India have agreed upon a landmark free trade agreement which will cut or eliminate tariffs on almost 97 percent of European exports, saving up to 4 billion euros ($4.75 billion) annually in duties, the 27-nation bloc said.
Under the agreement, India will grant the EU tariff reductions no other trading partner has received. It also addressed climate action, environmental protection, labor rights and women’s empowerment.
