Fox is to hold talks with his Indian opposite number Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday which will specifically focus on bilateral trade issues. “Britain’s historic links with India make it an ideal place to begin forging our post-Brexit relationship with the world. Despite their historical ties from the colonial era, bilateral trade is at a relative low level, measuring 14 billion dollars last year – smaller than the volume of trade between India and Germany. And ties have not been helped by Britain’s imposition of visa restrictions on Indian students wanting to stay on after completing university courses. Anything she speaks on visa regime that appeals to public in India won’t resonate well with Brexit voters,” he said.
