[🇧🇩] The U.S.A.---A Strategic Partner of Bangladesh

[Old School]

India alone can't control the fate of any government in this region. They aren't that strong that many of us think.

Who was behind 1/11? Surely it's west and it's foot soldier India right?

So when from 2018 and specially before 2024 election USA was desperate to kick out Hasina, still do you think it's India to has the power to go against both USA and China? I don't think so!

Also do you remember BNP's trade agreement with Taiwan in 2004?

And later it was closed by BAL regime in 30 June 2009?

Do you still believe that China is pleased with BNP?

There are thousands of pieces of evidence of Chinese bankrolling behind the BAL government, which money India can only dream of. India takes money from BD, while China provides money.
THE ONLY PEOPLE DENY THIS FACT ARE THE LEFTIST ( FORMER NAP, JSD, CPB) FACTIONS OF BNP. They are the master of propaganda by leftist design. It is highly unlikely that the Chinese will be fooled by the India out campaign by the BNP and reset their relationship. Who do you think was responsible for the seizure of 14 truck arms cache in Chittagong in 2004 in the same year when Tareq, along with Amir Khasru Chowdhury, opened up a Taiwanese visa office in Dacca and BD visa office in Taipei under cover of the cultural section?
Seeing sane Bengali people like you who can read between the lines is excellent.

Very well said @Old School bhai! Actually putting blame on India for everything is actually making them look powerful, that actually ceate panic among common Bangladeshi people; some people do it intentionally, others do it unknowingly! So it's also could be their propaganda to create mess among Bangladeshi people! They ( raw ) are ruling us ( our mind) through fear!

Also people must not blindly believe things that they see with bare eyes! Appearecne is always ( most of time) deceiving , we have to use our brain in order to understand things correctly!

People say that Hasina bought armed forces , she is responsible for all wrong doing , never even mistakenly thing that Hasina ( or other parties sometimes) is just front face , she can be taken down overnight if armed forces withdraw their support!

@Saif , you can read this article from Global Times! And surely you know that Global Times is actually voice of Chinese government! I hope now you will understand who is behind Hasina!

Hasina's reelection shows Bangladesh's determination to rid US interference

On January 7, the 12th National Parliament elections in Bangladesh came to a peaceful end. As expected, the Awami League, led by the incumbent Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, achieved an overwhelming victory. This will give Prime Minister Hasina a fourth straight term. The victory was achieved despite continuous pressure and criticism from the West. This victory not only reflects Prime Minister Hasina's determination as an experienced politician who is not afraid of external forces, but also her insistence on her chosen political direction and development path. It also reflects the strong desire of many countries in the Global South, represented by Bangladesh, to seek political stability, economic growth and social development in their own countries while avoiding involvement in the geopolitical competition provoked by the West.

The US Department of State spokesperson, Matthew Miller, has denied an accusation reportedly made by a former Indian ambassador to Bangladesh that the US ambassador in Dhaka, Peter Haas, was in hiding just before Bangladesh's immediate past general election due to alleged Indian pressure.

The State Department spokesperson made the denial in response to a question at the department's regular press briefing in the US on Monday.

The text of the press briefing was uploaded to the State Department's official website.

The questioner asked, 'Is that true that U.S. ambassador in Dhaka, Peter Haas, was in hiding just before Bangladesh one-sided election due to alleged Indian pressure? The accusation was reportedly made by a senior Indian diplomat and former ambassador to Bangladesh during a book launching ceremony in New Delhi.'

'So I haven't been following every book launch ceremony in New Delhi, but no, that is not accurate,' responded the State Department spokesperson.

The accusation was reportedly made by former Indian ambassador to Bangladesh, Pinak Ranjan Chakravarty, in a book launching ceremony organised by the Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi. The book was written by the senior Indian diplomat.​

The government has sought US support to implement the long-term economic vision of building a 'Smart Bangladesh' by 2041.

Shahriar Kader Siddiky, secretary of the Economic Relations Division (ERD) and alternate governor of Bangladesh to ADB, made the call in a meeting with a US delegation on the sidelines of the ADB Annual Meeting 2024 at Tbilisi in Georgia.

Alexia Latortue, assistant secretary for International Trade and Development of US Treasury, led the US delegation.

In the meeting, both the countries discussed climate cooperation and exchanged views on the reforms Bangladesh is currently undertaking for consolidating financial and fiscal discipline.

Stressing the need for climate finance, the ERD secretary said a huge investment would be required for Bangladesh's climate transition.

Meanwhile, Finance Minister Abul Hassan Mahmood Ali joined an event on "Financing the Clean Energy Transition in South Asia" on the second day of the ADB Annual Meeting as a panellist and presented Bangladesh's vision for clean and green energy transition.

Ali also focused on building greater trust and confidence among South Asian countries to leverage their additional capacities in hydro, solar and other non-fossil fuel sources for meeting region's growing energy needs in a sustainable manner.

The minister emphasised on creating environment for domestic and foreign investors to bring finances in bankable energy projects and also sought ADB's support to this end.​

Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Sunday said Awami League does not have any conflict with the US.

"But if telling the truth hurts their interests, then nothing can be done," he said.

Quader was speaking at a press conference organised at the political office of Awami League President Sheikh Hasina in the capital's Dhanmondi area.

During the Vietnam War, various universities, including Columbia University in the United States faced hurdles as they raised voices against the war, Quader mentioned, adding that such types of repression are still going on. "At least 2500 people were arrested due to the protest."

"Why has the question of friendship with the United States been raised for telling the truth?" he said.

He said: "They talk about the human rights of our country. Can't we talk about the human rights situation of their country? Why don't they see human rights in their own country, like Bangladesh? We did not mention that we do not have a friendship with them."

He said when the opposition party in our country committed arson terrorism, attacked the police, set fire to the police hospital, vandalised the residence of the Chief Justice, and attacked journalists, the United States remains silent

US President Joe Biden said his country is not authoritarian. But the definition of authoritarianism in the current US scenario is something different, he questioned.

Regarding foreign pressure, Quder said the pressure is there, but it is global economic pressure. Like many other countries across the world, Bangladesh is also facing hurdles due to the Russia-Ukraine war, he added

"Bangladesh is not free from the influence of the war. Import-export, energy, and dollar crisis are related to the economy. Consequently, we are under pressure," Quader said.

About Upazila polls, the AL leader said Awami League did not allot the party's electoral symbol to candidates in order to make the elections more participatory and competitive.

"This does not mean that other parties cannot allocate symbols for elections, if they want, they can choose their party symbol " he added.

Among others, AL Organising Secretaries Abu Sayeed Al Mahmood Swapon, Mirza Azam and SM Kamal Hossain, were also present at the press conference.​
