Two ancient civilizations. Two young states. And a partnership that could reshape the balance of power from the Mediterranean to the Indo-Pacific.

In this episode of EylON the Record, Eylon Levy speaks with Revital Moses, founder of “Moses in Israel” and a leading voice in India–Israel cultural diplomacy. Born in India to the historic Bene Israel Jewish community and now an Israeli citizen, Revital offers a rare insider perspective on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s expected visit to Israel (February 25)—and what it signals about India’s strategic ambitions, its balancing act in the Middle East, and the future of the IMEC trade corridor.

At a time when Western campuses are increasingly hostile to Israel, India’s growing alignment carries profound geopolitical and moral significance.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How Israel’s support during the 1999 Kargil War reshaped India–Israel relations
• Why Modi’s upcoming visit is a statement of strategic independence—not just diplomacy
• Whether anti-Israel radicalization on Western campuses is beginning to influence young Indians
• The promise—and vulnerability—of IMEC as a counterweight to China’s Belt and Road Initiative

India is now the world’s fastest-growing major economy. Israel is one of its most important defense and technology partners. But this alliance is more than transactional. It reflects a civilizational confidence in two democracies surrounded by volatile regions, navigating terrorism, technology, and global power shifts.

If IMEC succeeds—linking India to Europe through the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Israel—it could transform global trade routes and reduce the leverage of both Beijing and Tehran. If it fails, the consequences will extend far beyond the region.
