India, EU finalise landmark trade deal, PM Modi says
After nearly two decades of on-off negotiations, the deal will pave the way for India to open up its vast and guarded market, the world's most populous, to free trade with the 27-nation EU, its biggest trading partner.

When Trump lied and slandered European troops by saying that they avoided the front lines in Afghanistan, it was no mistake. It was a deliberate attempt to run down NATO in American eyes, to try and condition the American people to accept the end of the alliance.
