[ALOCHONA] Bangladesh: National Interest Group Report - April-July 2008

Bangladesh: National Interest Group Report - April-July 2008

The report has been developed in the context of the national interest of Bangladesh. From the last three decades we see the foreign intervention in our local politics, policy making and govt. decision making has been tremendously increased. Now day the current role of ambassadors and high commissioners has become visibly dominant in our local politics that made the civilians as well as the intellectuals of Bangladesh more warred about national sovereignty and foreign policy codes. National Interest Group is publishing this report in responses of the high demand and the country. This report will be circulated among the different stake holders in the different level of the Nation. we hope that we can generate a collective awareness about this matters so that we can start a productive discussion to ensure the accountability, transparency and a strong foreign and state policy of Bangladesh accordingly.

Advent of two new doctrines called `clash of civilization' and `war against terror' have further jeopardized the political existence of these states. In both cases Islam has been particularly targeted as a religion `breeding terror' and Muslims as poor and impoverished population easily drawn to terrorist outfits. It has become a major challenge for the people of Bangladesh to demonstrate their commitment to liberty, social and economic justice and democratic state building in such a hostile global and regional environment. The sole global super-power has unilaterally taken the role of judge, jury and executioner in their relentless hegemonic pursuit to create so-called `new world order'. United Nation has been relegated to the role of abettor to any adventurous scheme taken by United States. As a result, the world has become less secured for geographically smaller and militarily weaker countries like Bangladesh. India's sole desire to control their backyard, reduce Bangladesh to serve its political, military and economic interest has reinforced by the new global alliance with USA and Israel and is being consolidated through various economic, security, defence and most importantly, nuclear deal.
