During an event in Chattogram on the occasion of Janmashtami 2022, Bangladesh Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen said he had requested India to do whatever necessary in order to keep Sheikh Hasina in power.

Chinese Ambassador to Bangladesh claimed that Washington is spreading "lies" about "forced labour" in China's Xinjian, and warned if Bangladesh is not cautious, the "lies" may hurt its RMG industry.
