[🇧🇩] Trump's Victory/Tariff/ Bangladesh

[Bilal9]

A good share Krishna.

Bangladesh has effectively now come in Trump's crosshairs and the US deep state machinery will now do the rest.

Interesting times ahead for our neighbours on both flanks.

Cheers, Doc

You are reading too much into Trump's proclamations. Watch what he does, not what he says.

Millions of H1B overstayers are about to get kicked out of the US, if they don't leave voluntarily. Those people are actually prima facie in Trump's cross hairs.

Putting Tilak in Trump's picture and doing Trump Aarti/Pooja won't help.

Trump will do whatever pleases his American base (jobs, grocery/gas bills), who don't care jack about Hindus or Muslims. Trump doesn't either.

Trump is just kinda currying favour with India with these posts. They must have dropped a few mil in campaign contributions, the lobbyists. It is all about trade and how the US can benefit.

Islamists running rampage in BD against a minority group will not go down well. BD's growing ties with China will also not go down well.

At his core, but, he's a businessman, transactional in his dealings.. it all really boils down to what BD can offer his country.

India will give him 10s of billions in military purchases.

India is also viewed as a bit of a bulwark against... Chyna! Also the only nuclear power in the region who opposes them.

and a stable democracy, though that may not be as important to him.

Overall, barring some sort of military crisis (Ind Pak, Ind China) I think this region is probably not going to be too high on his priority list to begin with.

I think you know me well enough to know I'm not the tilak variety Indian.

I don't really know how old you are but you're no spring chicken. And I am from the generation of Indians that at best will never trust America. In actual fact do not care greatly for it.

It is in the region's best interest that the US does not set up shop here.

They've exited Afghanistan. Pakistan is yesterday's news.

The game has shifted towards China.

And Bangladesh is closest to China and the weakest link.

I doubt Bangladesh gas it in its national fiber to resist American pressure.

That is why I am concerned. There is zero altruistic motive. I just do not want the yanks stationed at my gate.

And therefore I sincerely hope you guys clean up your act quickly and not invite them here.

@Bilal9 @Saif and other Bangladeshis may be too young, but should never forget

That while we Indians were fighting for Bangladeshis

To deliver them and birth them a nation

The US waa sailing its nuclear armada (carrier group) in to nuke us.

Fitrat of a person or a group of persons (nation, people) never changes.

Your observation is correct. Middle East, China and Russia will be on his priority list.

What does fitrat mean?

Its Urdu for one's inherent nature.

How are you so sure about "delivering and birthing us a nation" when Muktis did 95% of the fighting? Indian Army did not even cross the border until 15 days before the surrender.

And whatever Mrs. Gandhi did -was also 95% for the interest of India (breaking Pakistan) which Indian Hindu leaders were planning from 1947.

Acting like India did us a favor is the biggest piece of propaganda - which YOU may be too young to understand.

But all this is water under the bridge, where do you see things now?

Are Bangladeshis in love with India and its leaders?

India's foreign policy is the biggest failure now, especially regarding Bangladesh. Can't blame us for that.
