Russia stood by us in 1971 and we're surely with them: PM​

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today told the parliament that Bangladesh did not vote against Russia in the United Nations as the proposal was against a single country.
The prime minister mentioned that Russia is a friendly country of Bangladesh and it stood beside us when the US 7th fleet was sent towards Bay of Bengal during the Liberation War in 1971.

​

"Russia stood by us in our bad time and we are surely beside the country. But, if they (Russia) do unjustified anything we don't accept this," the leader of the House said while replying to a supplementary question from Jatiya Party MP Mujibul Haque Chunnu of Kishoreganj-3 regarding the vote against Russia in UNGA's second proposal.
She said when the first proposal was tabled in the UNGA, Bangladesh found that there was no issue of human rights, no initiative of stopping the war and no other significant issues, but rather only to vote against a country -- Russia.

"Seeing this, I decided not to vote," she said.
But Bangladesh stood for humanity in the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), clearing her country's stance regarding the issue, the premier said.
"When there was a vote against any particular country (Russia) we didn't go for it, but when the issue of human rights appeared in the second proposal of UNGA, Bangladesh voted in favour of it," she said.

Hasina said the war did not begin automatically; rather there might be someone who is provoking and forced to begin the war.
She questioned, "Why should a single country be condemned?"
In this context, she said, "We abstained from voting."
She added that the Ukrainian people are facing sufferings, becoming refugees, and children are also suffering due to the war.

Will Bangladesh still stand by Russia if they murder 3 million Ukranians and rape 300,000 of them?

Haha.lol. What a traitor she is.

Yes West Pakistan did wrong, I am not denying that.

But Bangladesh called for independence. I mean how retarded can one get.
It broke Muslim unity.

From what I’ve read online, Bangladesh (mujib) did not want independence from the start, he wanted a east Pakistan that used its own currency and had a paramilitary etc, this had caused issues etc and unfortunate events happened which caused a rift between the two brothers which will never heal. Pakistan will never apologise for what happened, which was wrong, but this was a both sided thing, calling it a one sided genocide is ridiculous, around 200,000 Bengali’s were killed (people go higher but according to CIA it was this figure) and upwards of 500,000 biharis were killed by Bangladesh.

Bangladeshis don't like it if you mention the Biharis

I wish we could do something for the ones currently stranded in Bangladesh who prefer Pakistan, but we are already overpopulated with a weak economy.

Funny part is what are Bangladeshis doing on a Pakistani forum and then gloating about their independence?

LOL Go to a Bangladeshi forum. Are there not enough Bangladeshi forums around?

Actually the large population for Pakistan is a blessing. Look how much power China and India gets for having a large population.

Even Indonesia holds huge sway because of its large population.

Forum is better with other opinions, you don't want an echo-chamber.

(Plus this is the Bangladesh section)

this part is true from what I have read off- line. he was going to become CM of a unite bangal within the union of akhand bharat. but the Americans put a stop to it by threatening soviets and bhratis with nuke strikes. American actually waned Pakistan to get rid of what they referred to as a bottomless pit and a curse on Pakistan.

oh BTW. each and every time this posts gets deleted

 

[F-6 enthusiast]

Ask the Arabs, or better, Turks, to take you. And then talk about “Muslim Unity”

just cynically using Islam as a shield for everything

You’re the one coming over here reminding us how much of a terrible choice we made getting free from your failed feudalistic bondage of a country

BD would have resembled south Sudan today if we stayed part of the union

Are you saying Bangladesh was initially going to join India, but was prevented from doing so by America?

Also why did the Americans refer to Bangladesh as a bottomless pit?
