State of South Asian geopolitics in global competition
The geopolitical landscape in South Asia is shaped by the strategic rivalries and alliances among global and regional powers. China’s growing influence in the region, through economic and political ties with countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka, is being countered by the United States, which seeks to minimize Beijing’s presence and control. At the heart of this complex geopolitical web is Bangladesh, a country with immense strategic value due to its geographical location and growing population. The political uncertainty in Bangladesh, including the fall of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government due to external pressures from the US, adds another layer of complexity to the region's evolving dynamics.
