China treats Taiwan as an integral part of china. China has in it's possession about 10000 sq-miles of Indian land in addition to a part of J&K. Tibet is a well known land of dispute. There was a report that china has dispute with India over water sharing. China seems to be potentially a greater danger than Pakistan. Indian nuclear armament is more of a reaction to China's nuclear armament. China betrayed our aspiration for freedom. I think Bangladesh got Chinese recognition after assassination of Mujib. Deelder has already mentioned how Vietnam and Cambodia feel about China's policy . China has already earned bad reputation for software piracy and unethical business practices. Even America cannot do any thing about it. China is now a superpower.

As Dr. Roy has already stated, it is the national interests that determine the so called "mutual respect" BS
>>>>>>>> Mutual respect works for all relationships. As I said, a stable prosperous Bangladesh is in the best interest of India. Similarly if we have good relations with India, it is good for us. We source a lot of products, raw materials from India. So it is good for both countries.
Kindly drop your favorite "Pakistan" from this discussion. I was speaking about China. This is NOT about Pakistan, it is about Bangaldesh.
You are either a bully or bullied country.
>>>>>>>>> That is why India has to spend most of it's budget for defense. Such dysfunctional policy cannot bring anything good to any people. NOT even Indian people!
If Germany and France can work as partners (Germans attacked France plenty of times) to advance their countries, why can't India work as a "Partner" with Bangladesh. As I said, India has disfunctional relationship with ALL regional countries. So no one wins except defense contractors in western counties.
Shalom!

As Dr. Roy has already stated, it is the national interests that determine the so called "mutual respect" BS. Groups, countries are not much different from individual traits. If you know you can dominate your neighbor, you do it explicitly or implicitly. Pakistan's all weather friend China is the perfect example. Pakistanis visit Beijing with a beggar's bowl and you can easily guess what exactly happens within the four walls of Beijing palaces. The world is pretty much messed up since countries evolved. You are either a bully or bullied country. The only exception is the Scandinavian countries. But they too get bullied by Russians and Americans
Only remedy is to stop blaming Indians for our problems. We need to grow up. We created our countries and we need to make to work assuming India as a foreign non friendly country. The same goes with Burma. Yes, life is tough.
If Bangladesh or Pakistan were stronger, they would be playing exactly the same role.

Good point SD.
However India is not exactly a paradise for human rights and many other vital areas.
India does it's "Bully routine" with all neighboring countries. That is why it has such dysfunctional relationship with countries within the region.
It is India's best interest to treat BD with due dignity and respect.
Respect will result in good relationship and bullying resulted massive distrust between countries.
Respecting other countries is not only "Good policy" it very "Effective" policy as well.
Shalom!

"2. The relationship between Bangladesh and India must be based on mutual respect."
I love your way of writing. It reminds me my structured school days of past.
What I do not like is the way you try to impose your fixed ideas and doctrines on others. How do you define your inter country mutual respect? Do US, EU and China have enough respect for our country when we are not even behaving like adults. We still beg for favor from these powerful countries. Should Somalia and Bangladesh get equal respects from the US? I think you know the answer.
Mutual respect should not be a demand, you need to earn it, brother!
