【Headline Exclusive】#印度#印度为啥放过了孟加拉国这块 "Fat Meat"?An Untold History Revealed!
This is not India, this is the train of Bangladesh
Hello readers and friends, welcome to the world of Wenxinguan, the editor will talk about a very interesting thing today, talk about why India didn't swallow Bangladesh in one bite, you must know that this is a lot of "fat". Why pinch it? We have to start from the beginning, and as soon as we talk about it, it will become history, so that we can slowly unveil the mystery of this history.
1. Brothers do not agree, outsiders benefit - the aftermath of the separation of India and Pakistan
Where did you start? I think back then, India and Pakistan, the two enemies, because of their different beliefs, as soon as the British left, the two separated, one believed in Hinduism and the other was close to Islam!
Hinduism
At the time of this division of the property, there were many Muslims in the northeastern corner of the Indian peninsula, so they naturally followed Pakistan and became East Pakistan. But these "brothers" are far away and their hearts are not aligned, and the brothers in East Pakistan always feel neglected and feel aggrieved.
The Islamic populace
India saw the opportunity to compete with West Pakistan while quietly saying to its brothers in the east: "Why don't you go it alone?" India's hand can be described as killing two birds with one stone, which can not only discount Pakistan's strength, but also alleviate those knots between its own religions.
Second, in the great power game, India has to settle the account
At that time, it was just in time for the Soviet Union and the United States to face each other, and no one let anyone. At that time, India leaned on the big tree of the Soviet Union, and it was quite confident in its heart, thinking about helping East Pakistan become independent, and the Soviet Union should have nodded.
But I didn't expect that as soon as things got bigger, the international community was staring at it, especially the United States and China, which have been staring at the territory of South Asia. India is thinking in its heart that if it really wants to swallow Bangladesh, it will become the target of public criticism, and if it is not good, it will offend the big brother of the Soviet Union. Let's not be too greedy and let Bangladesh set up its own door.
Third, a large number of people is not necessarily a blessing, India has an account in its heart
At this point, the editor thinks that India is still a bit of a brain, Bangladesh has a dense population, a small piece of land, crowded with hundreds of millions of people.
India itself is also crowded with people, and if Bangladesh is brought in, what kind of situation will it be? It is estimated that they will all be sleeping on the streets by then, there will not be enough food to eat, and it will be even more difficult to find jobs.
Coupled with the difference in religious beliefs, it is not possible to make the family quarrel every day, which is not what India wants to see.
Fourth, India has to be shrewd in its economic accounts
Although India's morale was quite high at that time, it didn't have much money in its pocket, and it was already a bit difficult to fight with Pakistan. If you really want to gnaw on this bone of Bangladesh, I am afraid that a few teeth will be broken.
In addition, the people of Bangladesh are not vegetarians, and they are really forced to be soldiers, and the economy will not be able to bear the war in India. India has been totaling at home, and I still think that if Bangladesh becomes independent, I can have more friends and fewer enemies, which is cost-effective, brother!
5. Geographical Location of Bangladesh: Natural Barriers and Strategic Considerations
After talking about the historical background, let's go back to the map and see why the geographical location of Bangladesh makes India think twice. Bangladesh is like a pearl embedded in the northeastern edge of the South Asian subcontinent, surrounded by India on the east, west and north, Myanmar in the southeast, and the vast Bay of Bengal in the south. It's not an easy location!
Bangladesh is home to one of the largest river deltas in the world, and while the terrain is suitable for agriculture, the annual rainy season is a challenge for countries that want to manage the land.

The most important thing is that Bangladesh is almost completely surrounded by India, and this unique geographical location makes it a natural protection area for India. If India annexes it, India's direct borders with Myanmar and Southeast Asia will increase significantly, and border control will become more complex and costly.
Conclusion: The wisdom of history and the enlightenment of the future
At this point, you can see that India's failure to annex Bangladesh may seem like a great opportunity on the surface, but in fact it is a deliberate and wise move. Ah San is smart!
India skillfully maneuvered in the international chess game, avoiding direct collisions with the great powers, and winning the initiative in the geopolitics of South Asia. Looking back at that period of history, it is not difficult for us to find that the contest between countries is not only a contest of force, but also a contest of wisdom and an accurate grasp of the current situation. India's choice not only solves the immediate problem, but also paves the way for regional peace and its own long-term development. History has always taught us the art of trade-offs in its own unique way.
