9. Geopolitical Relations
Bangladesh is strategically important in terms of its geopolitical position in
terms of regional power influence, as the three neighboring countries are
nuclear-armed and have problems between them.
China wants to develop relations with Bangladesh to increase regional
influence. Following this, China has sold two submarines to the
Bangladesh Navy. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bangladesh
expects huge investment from China in the development of the country.

12. Conflicts
During the 1971 war of independence, China directly voted for Pakistan in
the UN Security Council.
After independence, China did not recognize Bangladesh as an
independent state.
At present, China has approved the project by dumping it in the river
inside Tibet. As a result, Bangladesh and India are likely to be deprived of
their fair share of water.

13. OUR OPINION
There is no country in this world that is called a lasting
friend.
Everyone builds friendly relations with other countries to
implement the interests of their own country.
