Bangladesh experienced a turbulent 2025 marked by political instability and economic strain, leading to a downturn in its ties with India following the ouster of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The interim government, led by Muhammad Yunus, altered diplomatic postures, with Dhaka summoning India's High Commissioner multiple times and India summoning Bangladesh's High Commissioner once. Experts note a lack of global engagement with the interim administration, labeling 2025 a 'missing year' for the nation due to the absence of an elected government.
