INDIA: Officials Optimistic About EU Duty Free Talks
Indian officials said on Thursday they were optimistic about securing duty free access for textile exports to the European Union similar to those handed to Pakistan after high-level talks got underway in Brussels.
The negotiations follow the visit of EU Trade Commissioner Pascal Lamy to New Delhi last year when India asked to be included in the Generalised System of Preferences scheme treating it as a country that is combating drugs trafficking.
