India’s growth story is being carried forward, literally! With inland cargo movement hitting a record high in FY 2025–26, the nation has achieved nearly 788% growth. Rising from 18.1 MMT to 160.8 MMT, this 9x jump showcases the strength of infrastructure reforms and a logistics network built for the future. #NewIndiaInsights

Concluded a productive visit to Brussels, meeting with the #EuropeanUnion Foreign Affairs Council, calling on Presidents of the @EUCouncil António Costa and @EU_Commission @vonderleyen, and holding talks with EU HRVP @kajakallas. Also met EU counterparts and held separate bilateral discussions with many. Ten key messages in these conversations were: ✅ The finalization of the Free Trade Agreement (FTA) represents a turning point in 🇮🇳 🇪🇺 ties. Will not only unlock its enormous economic potential but express the strategic nature of our engagement. ✅ To realize the gains of FTA on the ground, the two sides should proactively assist each other in practical activities, including trade and investment promotion. ✅ The Trade and Technology Council (TTC) can be upgraded and repurposed to facilitate collaboration in critical and cutting-edge technologies. ✅ De-risking supply chains and enhancing resilience are shared objectives. The FTA will encourage deeper business linkages to that end. ✅ Mobility of skills and talent flows are very important. The establishment of the Legal Gateway Office in India is noteworthy. We have a common interest in promoting Global Capability Centers (GCCs) in India. ✅ The Security and Defence Partnership will be taken forward. Will endeavour to conclude the Security of Information Agreement early. ✅ Connectivity is also prominent in our agenda. Will work together to give practical shape to IMEC and other such initiatives. ✅ As multilateralism comes under stress, India and the EU will strive to strengthen its institutions and practices. ✅ Our Strategic Partnership will be carried out through close and regular consultations at the leadership level. Domain specific mechanisms will support those efforts. ✅ In a multipolar and uncertain world, the India-EU partnership will act as a factor of stability and resilience.

A wrap-up meeting with EU HRVP @kajakallas in Brussels. Thanked her for inviting me to the Foreign Affairs Council meeting. Our conversations on various bilateral and global issues were enriching. Agreed to maintain close and continuing contact.
