Some pretty good explaination. I was wondering about how East Pakistan ever existed. I looked into Mi-4 helicopters not too long ago, and they took part in the air assault on East Pakistan. Really interesting how the cultural differences were used to create an ideal situation for a coup/capture of East Pakistan. Probably there were some instigators that made it so that the there would be groups willing to support Indian troops and to do actions agains the government of East Pakistan. It is a present-day topic. As can be seen in Ukraine today. Thank you for uploading the video. Greetings, Jeff
I'd be interested in learning what war was the latest one to be formally declared, especially before armed combat broke out. The last I know of is Vietnam in August 1945 declaring war on Japan. Perhaps their national coalition's status as a "country" can be question, which in that case makes it Mongolia a few days earlier (though, after invading). Brazil declared war on Japan shortly before that, without any combat taking place. Has any war been formally declared after WW2?
That's interesting - the only one I can think of was when Ethiopia declared war on Eritrea in their war in the late 90s, I believe. In today's world, if war broke out between two countries, they should comply with the many rules governing conduct of war - maybe to them, it might be better to not be a formal state of war as it might be nearly impossible to abide by all the modern rules regarding abuses and atrocities that happen in any war
@@lewisdaniels4228 A plausible scenario for a formal declaration of war today, would be an ultimatum with a deadline. But I think those days of gentlemanship and caring about ones reputation are gone. In Wiki btw it says about the Ethiopian-declaration of war: "in what Eritrean radio described as a "total war" policy, mobilized its forces for a full assault against Eritrea.[57] The Claims Commission found that this was, in essence, an affirmation of the existence of a state of war between belligerents, not a declaration of war" But it is a close call anyway, thanks.
In reality, Mujibur betrayed Pakistan - the charges of treason (Agartala Conspiracy Case ) against him were later found out to be true. It was only in 2011 that one of the conspirators admitted that they met with Indian officials for India's support for Bangladesh independence; Sheikh Mujib conceived the plot to incite an armed revolution against West Pakistan that would result in secession of East Pakistan
