Will post-July Bangladesh learn from post-July Egypt?
Abstract
Whether or not the blood of Bangladesh’s July (youth) warriors will be wasted, whether or not Bangladesh’s July uprising will end in success or failure, and whether or not Bangladesh will remain under foreign control — all these depend on the sincerity and sagacity (or lack thereof) of the government and leaders of major political parties. I hope Bangladesh will take lessons from Egypt’s July movement and will tread with caution for the collective good of its people. The mandate Tarique Rahman and BNP obtained on February 12, 2026, should not make him and his party overweening and autocratic.
