Until recently, it seemed that India was a thorn in America's eyes! However, today, the same America has made India a part of the US-led "Pax Silica" alliance! It may seem surprising to the average person, but this is how the world of diplomacy works. Every transaction here has a single objective: protecting the country's interests, and there are no friends or enemies.
The Pax Silica Alliance, though still evolving' is a US-led coalition focused on securing the global supply chain for essential minerals, semiconductors, and AI. India's participation in this alliance is important for both India and the US. America possesses AI technology, while India has a huge market for AI. So mutually beneficial for both.
Essentially, Pax Silica aims to create a trusted ecosystem from mining to microchips and from microchips to AI, reducing excessive dependence on a single dominant supplier. It also aims to reshape 21st-century technology-based geopolitics. However, it is implicitly a US effort to counter China's growing dominance in microchips and AI.
For India, joining this group is more about securing long-term advantages in minerals processing, semiconductor manufacturing, and AI-driven growth than symbolic alignment. This opens a multi-dimensional window of strategic, economic, and technological opportunities for India. It is now up to India to leverage this opportunity to its advantage.
