The situation in Bangladesh has worsened, forcing the Prime Minister to flee the country. Let’s recap what led us to this point and look at what the future might hold for Bangladesh and India.
The youth in Bangladesh began protesting the lack of job opportunities, since government jobs were reserved for those who fought in the revolution and their descendants. The alternative jobs available are working in the textile industry for pennies or risking their lives ship breaking. Not a ton of solid opportunities…
A history of corruption and political incompetence has led the Bangladeshi people to this point, and taking a page out of the Prime Minister’s book wouldn’t be the worst idea for many. That means millions of refugees could be fleeing Bangladesh and most of them would likely be heading to India. But is Modi’s government ready to handle this kind of international crisis?
India hasn’t had to to deal with many international incidents in recent years, so they lack the infrastructure and resources to effectively manage a major crisis like this. When millions of people come knocking on the border door, it will definitely be cause for concern for the Modi government. |

Here at Zeihan On Geopolitics we select a single charity to sponsor. We have two criteria:
First, we look across the world and use our skill sets to identify where the needs are most acute. Second, we look for an institution with preexisting networks for both materials gathering and aid distribution. That way we know every cent of our donation is not simply going directly to where help is needed most, but our donations serve as a force multiplier for a system already in existence. Then we give what we can.
Today, our chosen charity is a group called Medshare, which provides emergency medical services to communities in need, with a very heavy emphasis on locations facing acute crises. Medshare operates right in the thick of it. Until future notice, every cent we earn from every book we sell in every format through every retailer is going to Medshare’s Ukraine fund.
And then there’s you.
Our newsletters and videologues are free and we will never share your contact information with anyone. All we ask is that if you find one of our releases in any way useful, that you make a donation to Medshare. Over one third of Ukraine’s pre-war population has either been forced from their homes, kidnapped and shipped to Russia, or is trying to survive in occupied lands. This is our way to help who we can. Please, join us. |
