Foreign Policy
Bangladesh's foreign policy balances relations with India (its most important bilateral partner due to geography, trade, and water-sharing agreements) and China (its largest source of military equipment and infrastructure investment). Relations with Myanmar have been dominated by the Rohingya crisis.
Bangladesh is a leading voice on climate justice, arguing that low-emitting developing countries bear disproportionate climate costs. It is active in the OIC and maintains strong ties with Gulf states, which host millions of Bangladeshi migrant workers.
