Russia-Ukraine War Impacting Bangladesh
Jan 29, 2023
Dhaka: The Ukraine war has complicated things for Bangladesh with the Moscow-Washington rivalry presenting a test for Dhaka’s non-aligned foreign policy. A report by the European Foundation for South Asian Studies (EFSAS) pointed out that the country needs to maintain its relations with both the US and Russia which would be difficult in the form of war.
The testing moment comes as the country prepares for two major elections. The Bangladesh Election Commission announced last week that the election for the next President of Bangladesh will be held on February 19 and another important event in the form of general elections is due early next year.
