Rising Nationalism is a great thing in fact Bangladesh has our own political party based off the Idea of Nationalism. Nationalism has been seen in many different ways through the years but Bangladesh has kept a strong grip on our views. Every nation deserves to have its own national beliefs because that is what gives that nation its ability to have support of the people. What is wrong with support from a nation's citizens? Nationalism is what keeps soldiers on the front lines dieing for their country and the people of it. Nationalism is also what keeps governments afloat if a country had a lack of nationalism the government would collapse due to the lack of support from its citizens. The Nation of Bangladesh sees nothing wrong with Nationalism. Bangladesh has seen many Nations and leaders being targeted for Nationalism the violence toward these Nationalists is indespicable, just because someone doesn't agree with these people they make rude comments or even try to make the out as terrorists. I hope that other delegates see that there is a major difference between Terrorism and Nationalism. Terrorism is the belief to instill fear into the victims as a means of mainly religion belief. Nationalism is one's devotion or patriotism for his or her country. Nationalism has done many great things for the world including building nations up like the USA from 13 small colonies. Bangladesh feels that there is nothing wrong with Nationalism and we want to end persecution of Nationalist peoples. We would support any resolution to increase nationalism around the globe. We will help create a resolution that uses the UN to find places where Nationalists are being targeted by others for their devotion to their country and take care of the situations promptly. I hope that we can work together and spread nationalistic beliefs around the world this weekend.
