Bangladesh: Bangladesh’s relations with Sri Lanka will grow further, PM Hasina

DHAKA, 05 March 2022, (TON): Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina expressed her confidence that Bangladesh’s relations with Sri Lanka would grow further through cooperation in multiple sectors.          

She said “in recent years, our bilateral cooperation has widened and I have the conviction that it would grow even more through multi-pronged cooperation, particularly in agriculture, trade, shipping, people-to-people ties, and tourism.”

She said “this in a video message at a virtual program to mark the golden jubilee of the diplomatic ties between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.”

On this day in 1972, Sri Lanka recognised Bangladesh as a sovereign and independent country.

The prime minister said “the early recognition by Sri Lanka provided the newly emerging country with much-valued support.”
