流亡印度的孟加拉国前总理谢赫·哈西娜日前在新德里召开记者会，宣布计划于12月返回孟加拉国，引发两国外交危机。[1]哈西娜在活动中表示："无论什么命运等待我，我都要回到我的人民身边。"[1]尽管她面临死刑判决，但仍坚持回国计划。[1]
孟加拉国外交部对此表示强烈不满，称印度允许此活动进行是"对孟加拉国主权的冒犯"。[1]孟加拉国随后要求印度引渡哈西娜，但印度政府声称对记者会的组织没有直接角色。[1]
哈西娜于2024年因学生领导的持续数周抗议活动而逃往印度。[1]她因政府对学生起义的致命镇压被缺席判处绞刑。[1]哈西娜的儿子声称，她在印度"得到了作为国家首脑的充分服务和安保待遇"。[1]

Tensions between India and Bangladesh have sharply escalated following a press conference held in New Delhi by exiled former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, triggering a diplomatic row between the two countries. Bangladesh's Foreign Ministry condemned the event as an affront to national sovereignty and demanded that India extradite Hasina, while New Delhi claimed to have played no direct organizational role in the gathering [1].
At the conference, Hasina declared her intention to return to Bangladesh in December despite facing a death sentence, stating: "No matter what fate awaits me, I must return to my people" [1]. She had fled to India in 2024 following weeks of student-led protests against her government's deadly crackdown on a student uprising [1]. A military tribunal later sentenced her to death in absentia for her role in that response [1].
Hasina's son asserted that she had received "full state-level security and protocol treatment" during her stay in India [1]. Former cricket captain Shakib Al Hasan, who attended the press conference alongside Hasina, subsequently had his residence in Bangladesh attacked by unidentified assailants who threw petrol bombs at the property [1].
