Bangladesh: EU waiting for Bangladesh govt’s response over use of CRIMARIO

DHAKA, 03 April 2022, (TON): European Union special envoy for the Indo-Pacific Gabriele Visentin has said “they are still waiting for a final answer from the Bangladesh government regarding their offer to use a maritime awareness system named CRIMARIO.”

‘We’re very positively engaging with the Bangladesh authority.

He said while responding to a question during an interaction with diplomatic correspondents “this is a very concrete proposal that is on the table.”

EU Critical Maritime Route Wider Indian Ocean aims to support countries in the region to enhance their Maritime Situational Awareness, the sharing and fusion of data from various sources to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the maritime domain and to promote its security and safety.

‘It’s software. It can be used for many purposes. It could equip both navies and coastguards and it allows knowing what is exactly happening at sea,’ said the EU special envoy, hoping that they will soon get a final answer from Bangladesh.
