India-EU Finalize Historic Free Trade Deal After 20 Years

The Spin

This deal represents Europe's surrender from a position of extreme weakness after deliberately destroying its industrial base through energy self-sabotage and regulatory overload. Manufacturing, jobs and industrial know-how will shift east while Europe becomes irrelevant as a producer, left only consuming what it no longer makes. Free trade between unequal partners accelerates collapse, not balance.

The India-EU agreement unlocks unprecedented market access with over 99% of Indian exports gaining preferential entry, creating massive opportunities for workers, artisans and small businesses across labor-intensive sectors. This strategic partnership between the world's 4th and 2nd largest economies positions both regions for inclusive, resilient growth through balanced commitments in goods, services and mobility.
