Chinese President Xi Jinping met with Bangladeshi leader Muhammad Yunus, pledging deeper cooperation as Bangladesh seeks to strengthen ties amidst rocky relations with India following a leadership change.

On Friday, Chinese President Xi Jinping promised to enhance cooperation with Bangladeshi leader Muhammad Yunus during a crucial meeting. This engagement occurs as Bangladesh pursues new alliances to mitigate its strained relations with India. Yunus assumed the presidency of Bangladesh in August following the removal of the authoritarian former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who sought refuge in New Delhi following a student-led uprising.

The meeting between Presidents Xi Jinping and Muhammad Yunus marks a significant step towards strengthening ties between China and Bangladesh, particularly at a time when Bangladesh is reevaluating its diplomatic relationships. The commitment to deeper cooperation reflects China’s strategic interest in the region amidst Bangladesh’s shifting alliances.
