00:00the Western powers who were needing a base for a long time, who have been asking for it for a long
00:06time, not China. The question is that if you recall a few days back, Haseena made a statement
00:12that she has been asked to give a base, military base to some external power. It was a quota
00:19movement plus huge political infusion into that. It is replicating now in West Bengal.
00:27Internally, the kind of comments that were being made from Sheikh Haseena's side,
00:33as far as the protesting students were concerned, equating them with, you know, those who were
00:40siding with the Pakistani forces during the time of independence in 1971. Internally,
00:47how slippery was the ground for Sheikh Haseena in Bangladesh? Because externally, yes,
00:53she made trips to India, she made visits to China as well. But internally, how weak a ground she
01:00was on? You know, the question is that if you recall a few days back, Haseena made a statement
01:09that she has been asked to give a base, military base to some external power in return of stability
01:16of her government and she said she had refused. Now, make your guess about it. This is a primary
01:24evidence because the Prime Minister made that kind of a statement and she would not make this
01:28kind of a statement without there is any evidence. So obviously, I think the external powers were
01:35seeking some kind of a military foothold in Bangladesh for a long time. For a long time,
01:42their effort has been and this kind of a snub which was administered to them might not have
01:49gone very well with them and that's why I say that one should take into account when analysing
01:55the situation. We are too close to these developments and therefore, there is a lot
02:00of speculation. I admit that. I don't have any hard facts but it's quite logical that this is
02:08what the equation which might have come up. The Western powers who were needing a base for a long
02:14time, who have been asking for it for a long time, not China. The Chinese might have assisted the
02:22protest now, if at all, partly to support Pakistani objectives and partly because misunderstanding
02:30at the top level has developed during Haseena's visit. The protest movement for the quota,
02:36it was a quota movement plus huge political infusion into that and huge role of Jamaat-e-Islami
02:45and BNP in it largely to remove Haseena. So when the quota resolution became
02:51clear, they still were not satisfied because what they wanted was not achieved.
02:58Absolutely. Absolutely. Professor Munir, thank you so much for speaking to us.
