Rubio Will Visit India ‘Very Soon’, Quad Remains a Priority, Says US Envoy Gor

Marco Rubio will advance India-U.S. trade talks and strengthen critical minerals and AI supply chains under the Pax Silica coalition, boosting Quad cooperation, officials said.

  • On Friday, February 20, 2026, U.S. Envoy to India Sergio Gor said U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio will visit India in the next few months.
  • After the Trump administration deprioritized the Indo-Pacific, Gor said Rubio held a Quad meeting within the first hour of assuming charge in January 2025, leading to no Quad Summit that year.
  • During the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi, India joined the Pax Silica Declaration to enter a U.S.-led coalition for critical minerals and AI, and Gor said `And that sends a message to the world.`
  • Gor said the India–U.S. trade deal is set to be inked soon, which he said will take bilateral ties to the next level while signaling repair after strained relations under the Trump administration.
  • As Washington emphasizes the Quad, Gor described it as an important group for cooperation among India, the U.S., Japan, and Australia.
