As China’s navy docks in Bangladesh, India watches with ‘growing concern’
Chinese naval training ship Qi Jiguang and amphibious dock landing ship Jinggangshan arrived in Chittagong on October 12 for what China’s defence ministry called a three-day goodwill visit.
The aim of the visit, which includes courtesy calls, was to deepen mutual understanding and strengthen cooperation with the Bangladesh Navy as part of efforts to build “a maritime community with a shared future”, the ministry said.
