Discussions held with US representatives to resolve tariff issues: Touhid

Foreign Affairs Adviser Md. Touhid Hossain has said the government has informed the US representatives about the steps taken regarding the additional tariff issues. Discussions were held with US representatives regarding the matter.

The Foreign Affairs Adviser said this in response to questions from journalists at the Foreign Service Academy after a program organized on the occasion of Foreign Service Day on Friday (April 18).

Md. Touhid Hossain said a written protest has already been given from the office of the Chief Adviser regarding the false allegations against Bangladesh regarding the Murshidabad riots. 

About the discussion with the Foreign Secretary of Pakistan, Md. Touhid Hossain said he had only a courtesy meeting with Pakistani Foreign Secretary Amna Baloch. 

Hossain said around 80 percent of the challenges faced by Bangladeshi expatriate workers stem from domestic processes before their migration, while the remaining 20 percent occur in destination countries.
