Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, in London, discusses adding ‘further momentum’ to India-U.K. trade talks

The eleventh round of trade negotiations between India and the U.K. kicked off in London, with Union Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal in the city for meetings with his U.K. counterpart, Business and Trade Secretary Kemi Badenoch, and representatives of British industry on July 10 and 11. The visit is being seen by some in the U.K. government as a sign of political determination to work out a deal.

“Discussed how both sides can add further momentum to the India-UK Free Trade Agreement negotiations for a mutually beneficial deal,” Mr Goyal said on Twitter. The current round of talks between the two sides is set to conclude on July 14th.
