Bangladesh visibly pursues a distinct strategy for striking balances among global and regional powers under a guiding principle set by Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman with his foresight as a statesman, said policymakers and analysts.<\/p>\n
They said Bangabandhu adopted the \u201cnon-alignment\u201d policy for newborn Bangladesh in early 1970s amid the peak of the cold war in a politically bipolar world, but it remained valid and crucial until today despite a changed global scenario.<\/p>\n

Simultaneously, he said, Bangabandhu, sought good relations with all major powers while his goal was to ensure peace and stability in South Asia, a strategy which the incumbent foreign minister Dr AK Abdul Momen called a \u201cmagic\u201d policy that demonstrates his \u201cinherent quality\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are still following and maintaining it . . , her daughter (Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina) is also following him with her own prudence — balancing everything successfully,\u201d said Momen in an interview with BSS coinciding with the Month of Mourning.\u09ac\u09bf\u09b8\u09cd\u09a4\u09be\u09b0\u09bf\u09a4<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bangladesh visibly pursues a distinct strategy for striking balances among global and regional powers under a guiding principle set by Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman with his foresight as a statesman, said policymakers and analysts.
