Yunus's Gaza Peace Plan: Bangladesh in Chaos, Pakistan's Influence Questioned
- •Bangladesh's Yunus government, facing internal violence, seeks to send troops to Gaza as part of Trump's '20-Point Peace Plan' and the Internal Stabilization Force (ISF).
- •Pakistan previously offered troops for Gaza, but its pro-Hamas stance and Israel's distrust have kept Munir's plan in limbo.
- •Bangladesh's National Security Advisor, Khalilur Rahman, met US officials, expressing Dhaka's readiness to deploy its army to Gaza, reportedly receiving a 'green light'.
- •Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus aims to gain international legitimacy and domestic support, particularly from Jamaat-e-Islami, by engaging in the Gaza conflict.
- •Deploying troops to Gaza could be disastrous for both Bangladesh and Pakistan, potentially leading to internal unrest if their soldiers confront Hamas.
