Terrible News from Papua New Guinea. #InternationalNews

Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina disclosed that a country (not named) is plotting to carve out “a Christian state like East Timor,” taking parts from Bangladesh and Myanmar.

She also said a white man offered her a hassle-free reelection in the 7 January polls provided she allowed a foreign country to establish an air base in Bangladesh territory. Here again, the Bangladesh Prime Minister did not name the nationality of that “white man.”

Although the Prime Minister did not mention the name of the country that wants to establish an airbase in Bangladesh, it is well-assumed that the name of that country is the US.

For many years, Washington has been eyeing St. Martin Island, a small island (area only 3 km square) in the northeastern part of the Bay of Bengal, about 9 km south of the tip of the Cox’s Bazar-Teknaf peninsula, forming the southernmost part of the country #Geopolitics #IndianSubcontinent
