- The Netherlands is set to join the U.S.-led "Pax Silica", a group of U.S.-allied countries cooperating to secure supply chains needed for artificial intelligence, the Dutch foreign ministry said on Tuesday.

The entry of the Netherlands, as the host country of top computer chip equipment maker ASML ASML.AS, is an important win for the initiative, one of the pillars of U.S. tech diplomacy.
