I believe this lack astuteness of observations.India won't allow it to happen, Bangladesh is under too direct Indian control and influence to allow Bangladesh to be truly independent and Sheikh Hasina knows it. After having exacted revenge from Bangladeshis this crazed woman would no doubt turn her attention on Pakistan. Until there is political change and the Modi-Hassina relationship breaks Pakistan should proceed with caution.
After reading a lot on South Asia's modern history, I can still believe that BAL, and co. were a telephone government during Rajiv, since Hasina's family were literally living with some of his relatives in a government flat in Pandara Park in ND. I can certainly feel she has some of that Indira's streak in her, she is trying to emulate her to some extend no doubt.
But since then a ton of time has passed. What's is also known from public record is that she always goes to Rajiv's grave in ND when she is there, and that she is very unhappy hew perception of "INC being back-stabbed," and that India "went astray" during nineties, with BJP being a part of that.
Her loyalty to ND is more or less personal loyalty to Nehru-Gandhi family, not India as a state. This is what I think.
Why not? Chengdu will be as happy to sell FC1s to BD as Norinco was eager to sell a superior kitted Pakistani standard MBT 2000s to BD with specific consideration of them being superior to Burmese MBT 2000s.those are already operated by the Burmese, BD will not buy them.
If anything is signed between the two, it will be economic.
Russia was equally eager to auction superior variants of their tanks/jets to highest bidders on sides of the conflict, especially in Africa.
