Just now! India has officially joined, adding a member to the U.S.-led "Silicon Peace Alliance," and global supply chains are changing.
On February 20, India signed the "Silicon Peace Declaration" and joined the U.S.-led alliance for critical minerals and AI supply chain security. The alliance includes countries such as Japan, South Korea, the UK, and Israel, aiming to create a circle of technological trust. The new U.S. ambassador to India under the Trump administration personally promoted this move, marking a rapid recovery of U.S.-India relations and strategic alignment. The global technology and resource supply chain structure is undergoing significant adjustments.
India's joining of the U.S. "Silicon Peace Alliance" is not a simple commercial cooperation, but a key move in geopolitical strategy. In the past, India long practiced strategic autonomy, maintaining a flexible balance between major powers; now, by actively joining, it is essentially trading its supply chain positioning for technology, market, and strategic endorsement. Global supply chains are shifting from prioritizing efficiency to prioritizing security, with clear trends toward alliance and bloc formation. This move benefits India's manufacturing and chip design sectors in the short term, but in the long run, it reduces its autonomous space. For the world, under a multipolar structure, technological sectors are accelerating their division, and the boundaries between cooperation and competition are clearer. Whoever controls resources, technology, and standards will control the initiative in future industries.
