After suffering regime change in August 2024 when the US deep state engineered the fall of the elected government of Sheikh Hasina and implanted Mohammed Yunus as the de facto leader in Dhaka, Bangladesh continues to remain hijacked by subversive international forces that are imposing their sinister agenda on this pivotal South Asian state.
China has begun a long game in South Asia after India and Pakistan clashed following the terror attack in Pahalgam on April 22, in which 26 innocent tourists were killed.
On the night of May 6-7, India launched targeted missile strikes on the territory of Azad Kashmir (administered by Pakistan) and the Punjab province of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
Although the world has clearly ceased to be unipolar, the United States is striving to maintain its instruments of control. Moreover, if earlier it was in a veiled form (the concept of global leadership and multilateralism under Barack Obama), then Donald Trump decided to act aggressively, causing a serious resonance with his statements on Greenland, Canada, the Panama Canal and even NATO, thereby weakening the ties of the transatlantic partnership.
On April 22, 2025, in the Indian-administered part of Kashmir, unidentified people who emerged from the forest in the vicinity of the city of Pahalgam shot a group of civilians, including tourists, with machine guns. According to estimates by the Indian side, 27 people were killed and dozens more injured. A little-known group, the Kashmiri Resistance Front (TRF), claimed responsibility for the attack.
On Monday, August 5, the apogee of weeks of opposition protests came to Bangladesh, as a result of which the country‘s Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina resigned and left the country. She flew by helicopter to India, later intending to apply for political asylum in the UK.
Indian strategic community is looking at several possible reasons as to why the US was so opposed to the Sheikh Hasina government in Bangladesh. One of the possible reasons is that Washington might be looking to contain India due to its refusal to give up on its strategic autonomy.
India and the US strategically converge in the grandest way possible when it comes to countering China, hence why both sides entered into an unprecedented military-strategic partnership over the summer through the signing of LEMOA, which crucially allows either country to use all of the other’s military installations on a case-by-case basis.
