Britain’s Foreign Secretary David Lammy has arrived in India for talks with ministers and business leaders. The visit is being billed as an attempt to reset Britain’s relationship with the country and the Global South.
Talks about a free trade agreement with India have been stalled for months, following negotiations over the last two years.
India sees itself as a key player in the Global South and Mr Lammy said he wanted to reset Britain’s relations with these developing countries.
With political instability in Europe and the US, the government is looking to improve relations with other allies and that includes a country Mr Lammy calls the emerging superpower of the 21st century.
