He also thanked the United States for its support in various ways including providing vaccines to Bangladesh during the fight against Covid-19.
The US Ambassador praised Bangladesh’s economic progress. He also lauded the steps taken by Bangladesh and the vaccination programme to address the health and socio-economic challenges posed by the pandemic.
He expressed confidence towards investment opportunities and benefits of the United States in Bangladesh.
Peter D Haas also assured that the United States would stand by Bangladesh in its development efforts.
