Bangladesh Military Intelligence Delegation Visits Pakistan Amid Growing Security Ties
A six-member delegation from Bangladesh's military intelligence agency, DGFI, visited Pakistan on August 15, reflecting growing security and intelligence ties between Dhaka and Islamabad since the political changes in Bangladesh in August 2024. The visit, led by Colonel Magfuz-ul-Bari, occurs amid uncertainty over Bangladesh's stance on Prime Minister Tarique Rahman's potential participation in the BRICS summit. Analysts note Pakistan's ISI has increased its influence in Bangladesh's security establishment, while India seeks positive relations based on mutual interests.
