The United States has not only imposed such sanctions on the Bangladesh X-RAB Director General or the Chief of Police, but has also taken "action" against a number of countries.
The Biden administration came to power with a declaration and mandate that it would focus on human rights issues before taking power. Although such a ban could be "justified" as such, the United States and European allies are unable to accept China's presence in Bangladesh.
Bangladesh's silence on the quad, according to some Chinese sources.
It is undeniable that China has established itself as a major regulator in Bangladesh economically, diplomatically, administratively and militarily.
RAB training, various technologies are provided directly by the CIA and the United States. As a result, there will be uncertainty about these technologies and funding, and China will be able to establish mutual "co-operation" and "surveillance" systems in these areas. Such fears exist in the US itself. It is noteworthy that the US is not taking the use of Chinese Huawei technology in 5G technology of Bangladesh lightly.
In the words of many US politicians, "China's presence in Bangladesh is now a big thread. After waiting day after day, Bangladesh has not yet taken any step without reassurance and without taking time." Despite the cancellation of the GSP facility, the United States is still one of the main destinations for Bangladesh's export-oriented industry.
At least in the words of the US ambassador to Bangladesh, he said.
On the other hand, there is a lot of Chinese lobbying in Bangladesh so that Bangladesh does not think of joining the quad. Although one of our neighbors has not yet commented on Bangladesh's democracy and human rights, both the United States and its neighbors agree to indirectly reduce China's presence. China has already congratulated Pakistan for not participating in the Democracy Summit. On the other hand, China has thanked and congratulated Bangladesh for standing by China and adhering to China's one-China policy.
On the other hand, the Biden administration thanked Bangladesh for not participating in the Democracy Summit in support of the US decision, which has further clouded the situation. Bangladesh is stuck in a vicious circle of business, punishment, favoritism, congratulations. Either way, Bangladesh itself could be caught in the trap of world powers like Iraq, Turkey or Afghanistan or Syria. There is no doubt that the consequences of the Cold War could be dire. So now, Bangladesh has no choice but to take action.
In the meantime, there is a lot of bargaining going on behind the scenes with the Biden administration diplomatically, and China itself is keeping a close eye on the situation. Let's see how far the water goes.
Do you think Bangladesh should join the quad? Should it be pro-China? Or should it remain silent from non-partisanship? Although there are no trade restrictions, the Biden administration apparently wants to see Bangladesh move quickly on Chinese investment and military deals, and is determined to enforce them.
