Yet the essential reforms, which date back to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s time as finance minister in 1991 and include liberalization of external trade and dismantling the “license raj,” remain on track. It is clearly in India’s interests to join forces with the EU in negotiations within the World Trade Organization to lower protectionist barriers, particularly in services such as accounting, law, and finance, as this will free up trade and generate greater investment flows.
印度的基本改革发端于现总理辛格1991年任财政部长时期，包括实行外贸自由化以及结束“许可证统治”。这些改革依旧在进行中。加入欧盟并与之一道在世界贸易组织的降低保护主义壁垒，特别是在会计、法律以及金融等服务领域的谈判显然符合印度的利益，因为这会将贸易自由化并且产生更大的投资。
