A high-level US delegation met with Bangladesh’s foreign advisor, Md Touhid Hossain. In the meeting, the delegations discussed matters concerning the country, such as economic status, lack of institutional capacity, and human rights. The US assured the interim government of Bangladesh that it would do its best to help the country get back on its feet by assisting them in expanding its economic opportunities and institutional capacity and upholding human rights in the country.
The US embassy in Dhaka even supported this statement via X(formerly Twitter). The US embassy wrote, “We are committed to helping expand economic opportunities, build institutional capacity, uphold human rights, and mitigate climate risks with our partner, Bangladesh.” The meeting was headed by Brent Neiman, the Assistant Secretary for International Finance of the US Department of Treasury.
The six-member delegation reached Dhaka on Saturday and held the meeting on Sunday. After the meeting was held, the US Embassy said, “We support Bangladesh’s path towards renewed dynamism and growth. Our engagement with top economic policymakers centred on the authorities’ efforts to propel economic growth, job creation, and sustainability, including through engaging with international financial institutions.”
Bangladesh has been going through a crisis ever since former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Wazed’s government was toppled in a coup. Ever since the coup, the state of Bangladesh has been in constant turmoil, and investors are fleeing the country to save their investments. As a result, an interim government was formed in order to maintain stability in the country. Now, after the commitment of the USA to help Bangladesh rebuild itself, the future of the country is looking bright, but only if the interim government is stable.
