“It is excellent news that Boris Johnson and Narendra Modi are accelerating their free trade talks, much in line with what my briefing paper, published on 22nd April by the Institute of Economic Affairs, recommended.
“It is important that Prime Minister Modi acknowledges the challenges I outlined, especially in the area of property rights protection, and the cases I highlighted where property rights were being violated. Satisfactory resolution of these will be important to making progress on what could be a very exciting and geopolitically important trade deal.”
