“India Stops Bangladesh’s Trade Route After China Remarks, Impacting Regional Trade” India has ended a trade route that let Bangladesh send goods to other countries through Indian ports. The decision came after Bangladesh’s interim leader, Muhammad Yunus, said Dhaka was the “only guardian of the ocean” for Northeast India. Many saw this as Bangladesh trying to gain leverage. India’s move may hurt Bangladesh’s trade with Bhutan, Nepal, and Myanmar. “Bangladesh’s plan to work with China near India’s border may have led to this,” said trade expert Ajay Srivastava. Nepal and Bhutan may also face issues. India’s decision could raise questions under WTO trade rules. (PC: OrissaPOST)
