Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina has claimed a white man offered her to create an airbase of a foreign country in her nation in return for smooth re-election in the January 7 general polls.
Hasina and her Awam League returned to power by registering a landslide victory in the election.
She did not mention the name of the country.
Many have their eyes on this place. There is no controversy here, no conflict. I wont let that happen. This is also one of my crimes [in their eyes], she was quoted as saying by Daily Star.
Speaking on the proposal to build an airbase, Hasina said: The offer came from a white man.
It may appear that it is aimed at only one country, but it is not. I know where else they intend to go, she said.
She claimed their is also a plot to create a Christian state like East Timor taking parts from Bangladesh and Myanmar.
She said, Like East Timor … they will carve out a Christian country taking parts of Bangladesh [Chattogram] and Myanmar with a base in the Bay of Bengal.
