Bangladesh has an opportunity to internationalize the Myanmar issue

The political situation in neighboring Myanmar is gradually becoming complicated. Myanmar is not a modern and democratic state in the sense of what we call a modern state in the light of the Western framework. Myanmar is a very fluid state. It is a country that has always had internal political crises and conflicts. Sometimes more, sometimes less. But the state has always gone through complications. Myanmar could not develop in the same way as the modern democratic state is built. The people of Myanmar could not create the country as a single nation-state. The country has constantly been tormented by ethnic conflicts between the Karen, Kuki, Chin, Wah, etc. Notably, these conflict-causing groups have never sought complete independence for their controlled territories. Instead, they want to grab a larger share of autonomy. Revenue collection is one of the foremost sources of strength for the state. And the conflicting groups have been demanding a stake in it.

Why is bilateral relationship between Bangladesh and India so important?

The bilateral relationship between Bangladesh and India essentially began in 1971 when the Pakistani military initiated a genocidal crackdown on the innocent people of Bangladesh. It was precisely during that time that the two nations' diplomatic ties took root. As news of the genocide in Bangladesh reached Kolkata, patriotic songs were broadcast on the radio. At that time Calcutta Betar Kendra broadcast the news of brutal massacre by Pakistani forces in Bangladesh. The new journey of bilateral relations between Bangladesh and India started with the news of this massacre in Bangladesh. In fact, Bangladesh and India have thousands of years of relationship; it is a different matter; But the new phase of bilateral relations between Bangladesh and India started in 1971.
