China has once again made a new move giving a shock to India. As soon as Tariq Rahman assumed power, Dragon has once again sent a message to Bangladesh on Teesta River Project. Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh Yao Wen said on Sunday that China and Bangladesh have been in talks for a long time on the Teesta River Comprehensive Management and Restoration Project. Also expressed hope that work on this project will start again. He said this to journalists after the meeting with Foreign Minister Khalilur Rehman.
Chinese PM also congratulated Tariq Rehman
Apart from this, the Chinese Ambassador has described the recently concluded Bangladesh elections as a victory for democracy. Also said that high level visits between the two countries will continue. On February 17, 2026, Chinese Premier Li Qiang of the State Council also congratulated Tariq Rehman on becoming Prime Minister.
What did China say after Bangladesh elections?
Issuing a message, China wrote that both the countries are neighbours. There has been friendship between them for a long time. They are Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partners. The friendly relationship between the two countries is also old. Li said that after establishing diplomatic relations in the last 51 years of friendship, China and Bangladesh have always respected each other. The behavior with each other is also the same. Cooperation for mutual benefit and win-win results have been taken forward. This has set a good example of transactions between countries. Apart from this, China has also expressed support to Bangladesh.
On which projects did Bola Dragon speak?
Li said he looks forward to working with Prime Minister Tariq Rahman to carry forward the long-standing friendship and enhance high-quality Belt and Road cooperation and transactions in all sectors, and take the China-Bangladesh Comprehensive Strategic Cooperative Partnership to a new level. So that both the countries can get maximum benefit.
Bangladesh wants investment from China on Teesta project
Bangladesh will spend about one billion dollars for this project on Teesta River, of which about 85 percent will be taken as loan from China. However, this will be a shock for India because the place where this project is located is about 25-30 km from the chicken neck of India. If China reaches this place and carries out construction related activities, then India will have to be very careful.
