Bangladesh's interim leader, Muhammad Yunus, during his recent visit to China, appealed to Beijing to invest in Bangladesh, highlighting the strategic position of India's landlocked northeastern states. He emphasized that these "seven sister states" lack direct access to the ocean, positioning Bangladesh as their "only guardian of the ocean." Yunus suggested that this scenario offers China a "huge possibility" to extend its economic influence by establishing a base in Bangladesh, facilitating manufacturing and export activities. This statement has raised concerns in India, with officials questioning the implications of such collaborations on regional dynamics. (PC: Posted on X by Mao Ning)
