How do u know US does not want a base in Bangladesh? Seems like logical fit since India would not oppose and keeps Chinese at bay of Bangal and provide strategical support for NE India. US base or transit agreement would bringing jobs , dollar and development. For the US, Bangladesh base would be a huge strategic power nexus in the heart of Asia.[/QUOTE]The interest is because BD is key to India maintaining control over the Indian NE. BD has to provide India the military logistics route to supply the IA in NE. If BD does not do this IA loses the NE. India can achieve this if BD joins quad.
Therefore Chinese success in capturing Arunachal Pradesh depends on BD not providing the logistics routes to IA during war. Hence Chinese diplomatic warning and push so that BD does not join Quad.
Therefore BD neutrality is direct threat to Indian national security and territorial integrity.
US is just acting on India's wish here . USA itself has no political design on BD.
