The Rise of BRICS and India’s Strategic Shift
India’s increasing engagement with BRICS nations signals a shift in its global strategy. Once seen as a strong U.S. ally in Asia, India is now seeking multipolar influence by aligning with Brazil, Russia, China, and South Africa. This realignment could challenge U.S. hegemony in international diplomacy and trade.
Technology War: Silicon Valley vs Indian Tech Giants
With the boom of Indian tech companies and startups, competition with Silicon Valley has intensified. The U.S. has tightened restrictions on semiconductor exports, AI tools, and strategic collaborations, which India views as an attempt to slow its tech rise.

Military Balance and Strategic Autonomy
India is investing heavily in indigenous defense technologies and has inked new deals with Russia and France, signaling a move toward strategic autonomy. The U.S., meanwhile, has grown skeptical of India's neutrality in global conflicts, especially in the Middle East crisis.
Trade Disputes and Economic Competition
The U.S. has recently imposed tariffs on certain Indian exports, citing unfair trade practices. India retaliated by promoting local manufacturing under its “Make in India 2025” initiative, further distancing itself from American economic dependency.
The TikTok Ban and Digital Sovereignty
India's approach to digital sovereignty—banning several U.S. apps citing data privacy—has caused diplomatic friction. The U.S. sees this as protectionism, while India frames it as a necessary step toward digital independence.
Public Opinion in Both Nations
According to recent surveys, trust in the U.S. among Indian citizens has dropped significantly, while Americans are increasingly skeptical of India’s growing alliance with Russia and China. This erosion of public goodwill could impact long-term cooperation.
