Some 5 lakh doses of China’s Sinopharm Covid-19 vaccine, donated by the Chinese government to Bangladesh, were handed over to the Bangladesh government on Wednesday.

Chinese ambassador to Bangladesh Li Jiming formally handed over the doses to the authorities.

Earlier in the morning, a Bangladesh Air Force flight carrying the doses arrived at the BAF Base Bangabandhu, Kurmitola, Dhaka.
Foreign minister AK Abdul Momen received the vaccine doses at the State Guest House Padma at around 11:30pm.

Health minister Zahid Maleque also attended the programme.

There's a note inside that read "Don't join Quad" :lol:
Of course, BD has no reason to join QUAD. China is India's problem, not ours. America wants to encircle China from different sides. But it misses that target in India because BD is in between China and India. IA cannot move its troops efficiently unless BD gives it corridors.

So, it is an Indian headache, not ours. We will remain neutral and if IA tries to go through BD, we will repulse it. In the meantime, Indian NE gets separated and Arunachal becomes a part of China. Then, it is also an Indian problem.
