Bangladesh: Dhaka’s discontent over Washington’s sanction conveyed to US ambassador

DHAKA, 12 December 2021, (TON): US Ambassador to Bangladesh Earl R Miller was summoned by Foreign Secretary Masud Bin Momen to convey Dhaka's "discontent" over the designated sanctions imposed by the US on some present and former officials of Rapid Action Battalion (Rab).

Foreign Secretary Momen expressed Bangladesh's disappointment over the decision taken unilaterally by the US administration without prior consultation with the government of Bangladesh.

He flagged that the issues that were cited for imposing the designated sanctions remained under active discussions, including under the framework of the regular institutional dialogues between the two sides, and yet the US decision came without any prior intimation.
