An anti-West network is emerging: How should Bangladesh respond? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Military, economic and diplomatic ties among China, Russia, Belarus, Iran and North Korea have deepened considerably in recent years. Yet despite their growing cooperation, there is little evidence to suggest that these countries are forming an alliance. Instead, they are developing systems through which they can reinforce one another: trade networks that blunt the impact of sanctions; payment mechanisms that reduce reliance on the dollar; military supply chains; diplomatic support at the United
The dragon, eagle, elephant and tiger in a changing South Asia (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Three years ago, I used four animals—the dragon, eagle, elephant and tiger—to describe the competing ambitions shaping South Asia. The dragon represented China, the eagle the United States, the elephant India, and the still-emerging tiger Bangladesh. The metaphor remains useful, but the geopolitical landscape surrounding these animals has changed considerably.

This understanding is overly simplistic. What we see he
America at 250 and Bangladesh’s strategic moment (opens the original)
Read excerpt
250 years after the Declaration of Independence, America remains the world’s most influential military power, one of its largest economies, and the principal architect of much of the international order that emerged after the Second World War. Yet the United States enters its 251st year at a moment of profound transition. The assumptions that underpinned the so-called American century are increasingly being questioned, both abroad and within America itself. For countries such as Bangladesh, this
