Synopsis

The government of Peru plans to launch in 1Q17 the negotiations to establish a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with India, reported Gestión on 20 December 2016, citing Peru Deputy Minister of Foreign Relations Edgar Vásquez.

Specifically, Vásquez noted Peru finalized the feasibility study of the FTA with India. Now, in the coming days, the Indian cabinet must approve the negotiations, which would start in 1Q17 with a first technical meeting.

Vásquez added that, at first, Peru's agroindustrial sector would be the one to benefit from an FTA with India, given the country's high consumption of fruits, vegetables, and legumes.
