Sheikh Hasina talks about commitment to working together with Donald Trump again

Op India  

In a rare public statement after she was ousted from power, former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina on 6 November issued an official statement congratulating Donald Trump for wining the US presidential elections. Notably, in the statement, Sheikh Hasina talked about “her commitment to working together again”, indicating her plans to return to Bangladesh and become PM again. It said, “The President of the Bangladesh Awami League, Sheikh Hasina, has congratulated Donald J. Trump on his election as the 47th President of the United States of America.” It added, “She stated that his resounding election victory is a testament to his extraordinary leadership qualities and the immense trust bestowed on him by the American people.” The statement further states, “Sheikh Hasina recalled with fondness her several meetings and interactions as Prime Minister with Donald J. Trump and Melania Trump during his first presidency. She expressed her commitment to working together again to advance the bilateral and multilateral interests of both countries.” Sheikh Hasina’s commitment to work together again with Donald Trump for bilateral and multilateral interests of both countries is significant, as it means that she has not given up on returning to Bangladesh and become prime minister of the country again.
