Free Trade

In the meantime EU once again shows its great commitment to thwarting Putin’s allies by giving them free reign in Europe.

Europe and India are making history today.

We have concluded the mother of all deals.

We have created a free trade zone of two billion people, with both sides set to benefit.

This is only the beginning.

We will grow our strategic relationship to be even stronger. pic.twitter.com/C7L1kQQEtr

Please note that the expression “free trade” is now a standard mark of being on the left.

Liberalism is always about exactly what it says. Freedom from limitations, boundaries, traditions, and anything that could place any constraints on it. Of course, it’s only the kind of freedom that pleases capital that it encourages.
