Political Relationship Between PM Hasina and the Gandhi Family: Is it perilous or pacifying?
In his report (link below), Mr. Maini brilliantly started off with two key arguments: one; the bilateral relationships between countries mustn’t be based on personal relations and two; it could lead to diplomatic and political hazard. But it is not uncommon for countries to build bilateral relationships based on a personal relationship. For example, President Hamid Karzai had a very cozy relationship with former U.S. president George W. Bush. This is no longer the case between President Karzai and President Obama.
With regard to the reference of goodwill between Prime Minister Hasina and Finance Minister Mukherjee, it would be hard to predict what would happen once Hasina has left the office. The new administration could have a completely new set of policies which might derail the negotiations between Ms. Hasina and Mr. Mukherjee.
The political relationships, even if they are personal, could be beneficial to India and Bangladesh if they are carried out within the scope of diplomatic and political juxtaposition. These two neighboring countries have too much resources and commonalities to share to build a long-term peaceful relationship, which could strengthen political and economic stability in the sub-continent region and beyond.
