The “Hexagon of Alliances”, proposed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, is a minilateral strategic framework involving six countries—Israel, India, UAE, Greece, and Cyprus (with a sixth pillar being the broader security architecture). It aims to deepen cooperation in security, connectivity, and economic integration in West Asia and the Eastern Mediterranean.
Salient Features: The initiative seeks to counter the Iran-backed “Axis of Resistance” (Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis) and ensure the security of Sea Lines of Communication (SLOCs) in the Red Sea and Mediterranean. It complements the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC) as a strategic alternative to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). Key focus areas include defence and intelligence sharing, energy corridors (linking Eastern Mediterranean gas to Europe and India), cyber security, and resilient supply chains in sectors like semiconductors and AI.
