| dc.description.abstract | Historical solidarity is a cornerstone of modern Bangladesh-Türkiye relations, often referenced in diplomatic and cultural exchanges. The legacy of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is deeply respected in Bangladesh. School curricula include poems and essays honouring his leadership and vision. His modernist and secular ideals resonate with Bangladesh’s own aspirations for progressive governance and societal development. | |
| dc.description.abstract | The mutual cultural respect has been sustained over decades through academic, artistic, and linguistic collaborations. Bangladeshi ambassadors prioritize direct interactions with Turkish academia and think tanks. These engagements foster dialogue, dispel misconceptions, and highlight opportunities for collaboration. Universities serve as key platforms to educate younger generations about each other’s histories, cultures, and mutual interests. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Even a flower could play an important role in bringing the two nations closer. The recent Celebration of Water Lily Day in Türkiye showcased Bangladesh’s national flower and its symbolic importance during the liberation war. Turkish locals, including municipal officials, participated enthusiastically, creating a shared sense of pride. Such events provide avenues for mutual learning, generating goodwill, and deepening emotional ties. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Bangladesh has chosen Türkiye as a trusted partner for defence procurement due to its emphasis on technology transfer and sustainable systems. Unlike Western countries, which often supply outdated technology, Türkiye ensures that Bangladesh receives modern, high-quality equipment that remains operational in the long term. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Türkiye’s balanced approach in international conflicts, such as mediating between Russia and Ukraine, highlights its growing geopolitical influence. The country’s technological advancements, independent foreign policy, and proactive diplomacy position it as a rising global power. | |
| dc.description.abstract | Public diplomacy emphasizes cultural exchange, fostering emotional connections between citizens of both nations. Digital platforms, cultural festivals, educational collaborations, and media projects serve as critical tools for projecting soft power. By focusing on people-to-people connections, public diplomacy ensures that the bilateral relationship is rooted in mutual respect and understanding. These initiatives create a strong foundation for addressing future challenges and seizing opportunities in an interconnected world. | |
