India and the European Union are on the brink of a historic Free Trade Agreement breakthrough as top EU leaders arrive in New Delhi for the high-stakes India-EU summit. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic met Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, signalling that FTA negotiations are in their final stages. Dubbed the “mother of all deals,” the pact is expected to boost exports, support labour-intensive sectors, strengthen strategic and defence ties, and reshape global supply chains amid rising trade barriers.
