UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has begun his first official visit to India, setting the stage for what he calls a “21st-century strategic partnership.” Central to the visit is Vision 2035, a bilateral roadmap that aims to double trade by 2030 and expand cooperation in technology, defense, education, and clean energy. Starmer is expected to meet top Indian leaders to formalize agreements that could reshape UK-India ties for the coming decade. The move signals a post-Brexit pivot to India as a key global ally. In addition to economic goals, discussions will also focus on regional security and a shared commitment to democratic values. This visit marks a significant step in strengthening one of the world’s most important emerging partnerships.
