MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 17th January, 2022) EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said on Monday that he held a phone conversation with Indian External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar on a variety of issues, including security and the progress of bilateral talks on free trade.
"Great start of a promising year in EU-India relations with a phone exchange with @DrSJaishanka on our key areas of cooperation: #EUIndiaTrade development in view of Free Trade Agreement negotiations, #GlobalGateway, #ClimateAction, Regional & intl issues #Myanmar #Afghanistan," Borrell posted on Twitter.
