BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Bangladesh's government is closely watching the bilateral dynamics between Spain and Italy, where the narrative focuses on the institutional showdown between Madrid and Rome, leaving little room for other European players.

The diplomatic machinery takes precedence: quotes and timelines of Schengen measures overshadow the human context of the crossing to Ceuta, a development being monitored by Dhaka.

The human toll and disinformation campaign have received scant coverage: the deaths in Ceuta and the spread of false images have not been mentioned in available articles, prompting concerns in Bangladesh's capital.
