PM Modi's Second Israel Visit: What Is Behind Special Bonhomie With Netanyahu Amid Geopolitical Chaos

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has embarked on his second visit to Israel, underscoring growing strategic trust, deepening economic cooperation, and a strong personal bond between PM Modi and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The visit is widely discussed to be as highly displaying friendship between the two countries amid the rising tension in West Asia, the prospects of a potential war with Iran, and the continued Israel offense in Gaza despite the peace deal.

Though India has voted in support of a free Palestinian state in the UN, the country has stood by Israel since Israel’s Gaza offensive that began on October 7, 2023. India has provided labor support and weapons to Israel, allegedly supporting Israel’s narrative of self-defense.

The latest visit by Prime Minister Modi to Israel appears to be a bolstering means in the bilateral relationship. PM Modi’s current visit is his second to Israel, following his 2017 trip, while Netanyahu’s planned visit to India was postponed due to domestic developments in Israel.

India’s defense sector has become deeply connected to Israel under Prime Minister Modi, with the sector considered as the backbone of the fresh bond. India’s purchase of Israel weapons has increased by 75 % between 2015 and 2019, with PM Modi relying Israel for the modernisation of the country’s military.

Along with importing, India has also become co-producer of Israeli weapons, facilitating Israel’s global reach in weapons’ manufacturing. The latest visit by Prime Minister Modi is expected to boost ties and partnership focusing on weapon development and technology transfer. The two countries are also exploring ways to jointly developing anti-allistic missile defense systems.

With a dangerously unstable US and completely unreliable and hypocritic European nations, the countries who actually have problems in their lives and need to stand strong against dictatorships who would eradicate them if they could, need to be standing together.

The relationship between Israel and India has turned into a strong bond based on shared interests in defensive technology. India has the production capacity. Israel has the tech.
