John Key: Former Prime Minister responds to criticism of the India Free Trade Agreement

from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

Sir John Key isn't holding back on what he thinks about critics of the India Free Trade Agreement – like Winston Peters.  The New Zealand First Leader has raised fresh concerns about the deal, after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said New Zealand was committed to investing billions into the Indian economy.  Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says we've only committed to promoting investment.  Former Prime Minister Key told Mike Hosking while the India FTA isn't perfect, it will open access to one of the world's great economies.  He says anyone opposed to the Indian FTA is a clown who doesn't know much about economics.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
