Bangladesh keeps chasing after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina who fled to India after losing power. Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain refuses to give up on bringing her back home. The government sent official papers to Delhi months ago asking for her return but India has not responded. Hossain promised his team would keep pushing the extradition request until something happens. He rejected suggestions that officials feel disappointed about the slow progress.

The country also faces ongoing water disputes with its neighbor that need urgent attention. Two major river agreements between Bangladesh and India require fresh negotiations before they expire. The Teesta water deal has been stuck for years without any breakthrough from either side. The Ganges Water Sharing Treaty runs out next year and needs renewal through diplomatic talks. Hossain stressed that both nations must sit down and hammer out these water problems together.

Recent meetings between Bangladesh, China, and Pakistan sparked questions about forming a new regional group. Critics wondered if these three countries planned to replace the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation. Hossain quickly shot down such theories and called them completely wrong. The trilateral discussions focused on finding areas where all three nations could work together. He made clear that nobody intended to create an alternative alliance to challenge existing regional organizations.
