US Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor Kara C. McDonald has shelved her planned visit to Bangladesh.
She was scheduled to arrive for a three-day visit from February 7 to discuss labour rights issues.
A senior official at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told UNB that the visit is not taking place now.
However, there has been no official announcement regarding the visit - neither from the US side, nor from the Bangladesh side.
McDonald oversees the Bureau’s work on Europe, South and Central Asia, and the Multilateral and Global Affairs teams.
