DHAKA, 10 September 2021, (TON): Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen said “Bangladesh will decide its policy towards Afghanistan independently after observing the situation and their attitude but no terrorists will be patronised.”
"We have zero tolerance we will in no way patronise terrorists," he told reporters referring to the involvement of some Bangladeshis in Afghanistan during the previous Taliban government rule.
Dr Momen said “he was asked whether Bangladesh will follow the policy of India or Pakistan but he made it clear that the decision of Bangladesh is not linked with the decision of any other country.”
While briefing journalists at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he said “Bangladesh has a historic relationship with Afghanistan and is observing the situation in the Saarc member country.”
