Pakistan’s diplomacy has revitalized ties with Bangladesh, pushing bilateral trade past $1 billion.
After 15 years, Pakistan exported 26,000 metric tons rice, with more shipments on the way. Demand for Pakistani cotton, sugar & textiles is surging, while Bangladeshi jute, pharma & garments are gaining traction in Pakistan. Direct flights and online visas are cementing the bond.
The new Bangladeshi leadership is pivoting towards Pakistan. This shift, driven by General Asim Munir and SIFC’s strategic vision, opens fresh economic avenues and reduces India’s influence in the region.
With China in the mix, this trilateral cooperation is a blow to India’s dominance. Gwadar Port, CPEC expansion, and defense ties are reshaping South Asia’s geopolitics, solidifying Pakistan’s role and countering India’s ambitions thus adding to Indian nervousness.
