The fourth Bangladesh-US partnership dialogue has been scheduled to be held in Dhaka on April 29-30 to boost bilateral relationship.
“We are making preparations for the meeting,” a senior official of the Foreign Ministry told the Dhaka Tribune yesterday.
In the dialogue, Foreign Secretary M Shahidul Haque will lead the Bangladesh side while US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Wendy Sherman is from the other side.
Dhaka is engaged with Washington in a wide range of areas including trade, investment, assistance, security cooperation and people-to-people contact.
In the partnership dialogue, it is expected that both the parties would discuss three broad areas – development and governance, trade and investment, and security cooperation.
In the two-day programme, investment climate, energy, labour and terrorism issues will also dominate the dialogue.
The last partnership dialogue was held in Washington in October last year.
