Current government is not a normal interim government. They are standing on the blood of July revolutionaries. They supposed to take bold decisions that are good for the nation. They have the unconditional support of the people.
Oh, currently, the international community defines the current government of Bangladesh as a provisional or transitional government. This is a neutral definition.
Even without changing personnel, it needs to symbolically implement some measures to become a formal government.
This definition does not carry any political stance; it is simply an international convention.
What's your take in J10? Is Bd going any?
What I can confirm is:
The Chinese government has a friendly and open stance towards Bangladesh's procurement of the J-10CE, and there is also strong support from the Chinese public.
However, we are uncertain whether Bangladesh will ultimately make this choice.
This may involve details of the contract. We suspect the biggest obstacle might be the method of payment. There are many rumors circulating regarding this.
Rumors suggest that:
Bangladesh proposed a plan to completely clone the PAF (Pakistan Air Force) procurement contract, including the payment terms.
However, CATIC (China National Aero-Technology Import & Export Corporation) rejected this plan. This plan would have placed an unbearable financial burden on CATIC.
Subsequently, Bangladesh approached the Export-Import Bank of China, hoping the bank would provide funding for installment payments. Details of this plan are still being worked out. Bangladesh may use other economic activities to secure the interests of the Export-Import Bank of China.
However, none of this information has been confirmed through any official or reliable sources.
