The EU and India have concluded a landmark free trade agreement that dramatically lowers tariffs and opens both markets to expanded trade, especially in cars, wine, textiles, gems, and pharmaceuticals.

Lol...

Takes a special kind of naivety to think America is bad but still support Modi....

America is a piece of shit right now, but it's still not as bad as Modi's India

    Diversification is a smart strategy - it spreads risk and opens up new opportunities. However, over-reliance on any single partner or market can be dangerous. What I hope to see from agreements like this is a balanced approach: leveraging external partnerships while simultaneously strengthening in-house capabilities.

    There's this small particular detail... almost unimportant, that many just forget about...

    Modi is not threatening to invade Europe every day.

    So...

    You only care about human right violations and land grabbing if the victims are European?

    I wish that wasn't such a common view these days.

    Why don't you care about his threats to invade Pakistan?

    Are you even aware the decrease in trade between India and US is because of India's aggression towards Pakistan?

    Do you understand any of this?

    You don't have time for people who care about the human rights of non-europeans?

    Is your problem with trump just his hair styling then?

    Because you seemed to be locked up with his racism and support of fascists, so I'm not clear on what your problem is with him.

    For me, it's his racism and fascism.

    But if someone hates trump and likes Modi, it can't be either of those two things.

    I still don't have time for you, but I managed to find a couple minutes to explain you why:

    I don't have time for those who assume a lot of bullshit out of two lines in which nothing of what you said is even implied and then try to lecture others with a patronizing attitude of someone who looks like they're just looking for a fight.

    There’s this small particular detail… almost unimportant, that many just forget about…

    Modi is not threatening to invade Europe every day.

    You literally said the part you care about is the ethnicity of hypothetical victims...

    Despite both Modi and trump using actual violence right now against minorities and the people who support them...

    At this point, it's hard to give anyone the benefit of the doubt that they can't understand why that's racist
