Dhaka, Apr 8 (bdnews24.com) – The government has no plans to allow military base of a foreign country in Bangladesh, the foreign minister Dipu Moni said on Sunday.

"We don't even keep it in our thought process," she asserted at a press briefing at her ministry.
She was responding to a question if the government would allow United States to set up a base.

"There are six or seven US military personnel getting training here," the foreign minister added.

About Bangladesh-US security dialogue, she said it is a routine matter and Dhaka holds such meetings with many countries.

The US assistance secretary for military and security would attend a security dialogue on Apr 19 in Dhaka.

"We have multidimensional relationship with US including trade, governance and uprooting terrorism and security dialogue is part of it," Moni clarified.

"We have security cooperation and how we can strengthen it will be discussed in the dialogue."

When her attention was drawn to a recent comment of an Indian senior official claiming that Bangladesh was being used by terrorists, the minister said the government would now allow terrorists to "use an inch of the land of this country".

"The government is determined to stop terrorist activities in the country," she added.

Joint commission

The minister said she proposed a joint commission between Bangladesh and United States to discuss entire gamut of issues on a periodic basis.

"I proposed this when Wendy Sherman (US undersecretary for political affairs of state department) met me," she said.

Moni and Sherman had a meeting on Friday.

"We have robust engagement and discussion can occur also through foreign office consultation," she said.

TICFA

The minister said Bangladesh and United States were 'very close' to signing trade and investment cooperation framework agreement.

"There are some differences and we are negotiating with the US authorities to remove them," she said.

"There should be a consensus on labour and other issues related to trade," she added.

BNP bashing

The minister took a swipe at the opposition BNP for taking back their appreciation over the verdict on the maritime boundary dispute with Myanmar.

"The whole nation is happy but the opposition party does not have the attitude to join in. It is very unfortunate and shameful," she added.

Honour foreign friends

Bangladesh is likely to arrange one or more programmes to honour foreign friends in this year, Moni said.

"We have already identified 568 foreign friends and it may increase in the coming days," she adding, "It is a continuous process."

This post was expected from an ignorant tamilian. Well here's the indo-bangla 7 point agreement
signed with the Interim exiled gov during the war:

1. Bangladesh government will select only those people for administrative posts who have actively participated in the liberation war and any shortfall therein will be filled by the Indian government officials.
2. A joint force will be formed comprising of the Indian army and the Mukti Bahini and this force will be placed under the command of the chief of staff of the Indian army who will lead the liberation war.
3. Bangladesh will have no standing army
4. India will help raise a paramilitary force to protect the internal law and order of the country.
5. Open market will be the basis for trade relation between the two nations and this arrangement will be subject to periodical review.
6. The Indian army will be stationed in Bangladesh for an indefinite period of time but the time frame for their gradual withdrawal will be determined through annual meetings between the two governments.
7. Bangladesh will formulate its foreign policy only in consultation with India.

Indo-Bangladeshi Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Peace - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article 4,5,8,9,10 clearly showed India's malicious intentions.

Article 4 practically eliminated Bangladesh's power to devise an independent foreign policy and made it compulsory for Bangladesh to consult India about any major foreign policy matter.

Article 5 forced Bangladesh to confer most favored nation status on India to clear the way for India to capture Bangladesh's economic market without any restrictions, but Bangladesh being a smaller economy was unable to avail itself of the opportunities of most favored nation status.

Article 8 ensured that if there was a military conflict between Bangladesh and India, Bangladesh, as a weaker power, could not seek help from outside world to protect its territorial integrity.

Article 9 was included to protect India's strategic interest in its insurgency infested North Eastern states by imposing restrictions on Bangladesh to provide help and support to the insurgents, but India itself broke the sanctity of this clause by providing military and political assistance to Shanti Bahini in Chittagong Hill Tracts.

Article 10 restricted Bangladesh's power to sign a defense deal with a third party to improve its armed forces.

Here's why and how witch indira backed shanti bahini:

Political change in 1975 and new equation in Indo-Bangla relationship.
The new government was installed and gradually undertook plethora of measures to restore law and order of the country, to bring back discipline in economic sector, to lift ban on national newspapers and political parties, to increase budgetary allocation for the defense forces, and to change foreign policy direction to establish close and productive relationships with China, the U.S.A., Europe, and the Middle Eastern countries so as to diminish Indian influence over the nation created through signing of the controversial 25 year friendship treaty. The inevitable result of such a drastic measure by the new government of Bangladesh was cwhich it helped gain independence from Pakisonfrontation with India which saw it as an attempt to challenge its supremacy in the region and considered it a security, political, and strategic threat from a country tan. Strategically Bangladesh was too important for India to let it slip off her radar so they adopted a new set of strategies to keep Bangladesh within her sphere of influence in light of new political reality.

This is where your Shanti bahini admits that they get backing from GOI. Its a old article:
Bangladeshi Insurgents Say India Is Supporting Them - NYTimes.com

Bangladeshi Insurgents Say India Is Supporting Them

For more than a decade, India has secretly provided arms and money to tribal insurgents fighting for an autonomous state in Bangladesh, rebels given sanctuary in this border area say.

A senior security official here confirmed the assistance and said an undetermined number of rebel fighters had stayed along the border near camps of Indian paramilitary forces.

''The Government is giving them help,'' the official added, without elaborating.



A spokesman for the rebels said Indian officials began to provide arms and money in 1976, after the assassination in a military coup of Sheik Mujibur Rahman, Bangladesh's first President and a friend of India.

The spokesman, Bimal Chakma, said the Indian Government had not given as many weapons as were needed. ''At the beginning we got some consideration, but it is very low compared with what we need.''

The Shanti Bahini has an estimated 500 guerrillas. Over the years, the insurgents have increased their armory by capturing weapons through raids on Bangladesh military units. The rebels in the Chittagong Hill Tracts also picked up large caches of Chinese semi-automatic weapons during the 1971 Indo-Pakistan war. Past Help for Pakistani Rebels

India also armed, trained and financed ethnic Bengali rebels seeking to break away from Pakistan, of which Bangladesh, then East Pakistan, was a part. The guerrilla attacks escalated into a war between India and Pakistan in 1971 after 10 million people fled military atrocities into India. Pakistani troops were routed and Bangladesh was created.

The Shanti Bahini, which means peace corps in the Bengali language, was formed in 1972 after a rejection of demands for autonomy, preferential treatment and an end to the Muslim influx. The Shanti Bahini says it has killed more than 500 members of the Bangladeshi military and the police as well as Muslim settlers.

500 military casualties were way back in 1989 and 90's saw the most violent period of the RAW backed insurgency.:angry:
