Dhaka: Chief Adviser’s Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam has reaffirmed that Bangladesh upholds the sovereignty and independence of all nations. “Bangladesh respects the sovereignty and independence of all nations and expects the same from others,” he declared in a statement on his verified Facebook account on Wednesday night.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, Alam clarified that remarks made by Major General (retired) ALM Fazlur Rahman, who leads the BDR commission, on his social media account were made in a personal capacity. The interim government does not align with his views or endorse such rhetoric.
The press secretary urged the public to refrain from associating the government of Bangladesh with Major Gen Fazlur Rahman’s personal comments.
