India will not rush into signing any trade agreements and will reject conditions from partner countries that restrict its trading choices, Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal said on Friday. The country is negotiating a long-pending free trade agreement with the European Union, with differences remaining over market access, environmental standards and rules of origin. Trade talks with the United States, which has imposed 50 percent tariffs on Indian exports, and several other countries are also underway. Goyal said New Delhi would take a measured approach.
