Bangladesh Keen To Join Saudi-Pak-Turkey Defence Alliance, Says PM's Top Aide

[Asfandyar Bhittani]

The Pak FM spokesperson has said they'll have a discussion with the KSA and Turkey regarding BD's bid.....

By the by, Merhum President Zia-ur Rahman, a decorated infantry and NATO-trained intelligence officer at the PA, had a special relationship with the KSA and Turkey. Till this day, the Neem trees he planted in Mekka are called Zia tree! And, a avenue touching the Chankaya, Turkey's former presidential palace in Ankara, is named after him....

Also, these things don't happen in months. KSA - Pakistan bilateral and this trilateral pact took years to hash out. I am sure Bangladesh, if both sides are serious, will be part of it before the next election.

Has any of the Tri-state Union bothered to comment on this?

What do you want him to do when asked a question? Andrabi did not even bother naming any country.
