Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal has exuded confidence in overcoming issues to finalise a freed trade agreement (FTA) with the European Union (EU). Without sharing a timeline on when the pact is expected to be signed, Goyal said that countries like Italy will be able to export their wines and automobiles to India and in turn, India will be able to export whiskies, textiles and auto components to the 27-country bloc.

Citing his discussions with the EU earlier this week, he said ‘We are confident… there are a few issues which we still get over the line. I do believe we should be able to get this over the finishing line. He stated that teams are putting in their best efforts to deliver a good agreement, leaving no stone unturned.

He stated The Indo-EU FTA will be a fair, equitable and balanced document which will be a win-win for all the countries. He also said given the deepening ties between Rome and New Delhi, India-Italy ties will be a defining relationship of the 21st century.
