Foreign minister's comment
It is absolutely shocking to hear our foreign minister quote the Burmese ambassador and take the situation lightly. Of course the Burmese ambassador and government will say the situation does not pose a threat to Bangladesh. But where on Earth do you see a country mobilising troops on such a scale along its neighbour's border for "exercise" alone? Has Burma run out of land to carry out military exercises?
I urge our government to wake up and deal with this very real threat.
