Gaurav Sawant Reports: EU's Ursula von der Leyen Hails India As 'Chief Guest' On Republic Day

On this Special Report, Gaurav Sawant discusses the significant diplomatic momentum between India and the European Union following the Republic Day celebrations. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, serving as the Chief Guest, stated, 'It is the honor of a lifetime to be the chief guest at the Republic Day celebrations. A successful India makes the world more stable, prosperous.' The programme highlights the upcoming summit where a landmark India-EU security and defence partnership is expected to be signed, covering maritime security, cyber security, and counter-terrorism. Gaurav Sawant and Foreign Affairs Editor Geeta Mohan analyse the economic implications of the proposed trade deal, which aims to address tariffs in job-intensive sectors like textiles and chemicals. Despite challenges such as the EU's carbon border levy and non-tariff barriers, the discussion underscores a mutual desire to expedite cooperation amidst global geopolitical volatility and shifting trade dynamics.
