In the middle of the continuing controversy over Bangladesh Muhammad Yunus calling the Indian northeast “inland”, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Yunus were seen together in the Bengal initiative for more sectoral technical and economic cooperation (Bimstec) in Bangkok, Thailand.
When it is captured in the videos, diplomatic tensions between the two nations come over the notes and cause speculation that bilateral meetings can be planned on the edge of the sixth peak of Bimstek leaders.
In the video, both leaders can see how they sit together at the dining table, but there was no interview between them.
The Muhammad Yunus office also shared photographs of the main advisor to Bangladesh, sitting next to the PM Modi at the Shangi-La Hotel on the banks of the Chao Phray. Also read | Bangladesh responds to Jaishance’s ‘make up your mind’ comment: “Our minority problem is not a fear of India”
Ties between Bangladesh and India
The ties between India and Banglades have seen a fall in the middle of fears of Delhi about violence -focused violence and the rise of hard Islamic forces because former exiled Prime Minister Sheikh Hasin was expelled.
The relationship between the two countries deteriorated after Muhammad Yunus controversially brought the mention of the northeast states and called them “inland”.
Bangladeshi chief advisors said that seven northeastern India countries are a “inland” region and have no way to reach an ocean. Bangladesh called the “only guardian of the ocean” in the region and said it could be a huge opportunity and it could be an extension of the Chinese economy.
In his statement, Eam Jaishankar faced the Bangladeshi advisor Muhammad Yunus over his “northeastern inland” and said that “cooperation is not about the selection of cherry”.
“We are aware that our cooperation and facilitating are a prerequisite for smooth flow of goods, services and people in this greater geography. With regard to this geo-strategic factor, we have paid increasing energy and attention in the last decade,” he said.
