India and Russia-led EAEU to Hold Next Trade Pact Talks in June

India and the Russia-led Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) are expected to hold the next round of talks on a proposed free trade agreement in June in Moscow. The discussions will likely focus on non-trade measures as part of an 18-month work plan signed in August 2025 to diversify Indian export markets, including MSMEs, farmers, and fishermen. Russia is India's top trading partner within the EAEU, with significant bilateral trade driven by crude oil imports. Additionally, an Omani team is expected to visit India to discuss a separate trade deal implementation.
