After Pak, Now Bangladesh’s Md Yunus Cozies Up To China | Should India Worry? | South Asia Diary

Bangladesh’s Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus has made his first state visit to China, calling Beijing a “reliable partner and friend.” The move has sparked curiosity and concerns, particularly in New Delhi. Why did Yunus choose China over India? His office claims Dhaka expressed interest in an India visit last year but received no positive response—what does this say about India-Bangladesh ties? Bangladesh has been considered one of India’s diplomatic success stories in South Asia, but with shifting alliances and internal political turmoil, is that image now at risk? Could this diplomatic recalibration alter the balance of power in South Asia? Strategic Affairs Expert Sushant Sareen joins us on South Asia Diary to analyze the timing, motivations, and consequences of Yunus’s China visit—and what it means for New Delhi.
