Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Thursday said Bangladesh wants to strengthen its capacity to resist any external attack, not to engage in any war with anyone.
 
“We don't want to fight with anyone…but if Bangladesh is ever attacked by any external foes, we want to attain the capability to resist it,” she said.

The prime minister made the remark while commissioning three modern warships and two survey ships of Bangladesh Navy at the Naval Berth-1 in Chittagong.
