We don't back any particular political party in BD
US Ambassador in Dhaka Marcia Bernicat yesterday said trust, will and mechanisms in place always help resolve any irritants if these arise in a relationship.
“…I think our two countries have what we need to do just that,” she said while responding to a question from the news agency.
Bernicat joined a Facebook chat on the Bangladesh-US relationship marking the second anniversary of her arrival in the country.
She said the US work with all Bangladeshis to ensure that a “more inclusive political process” exist in Bangladesh.
“We don't back any particular political party in Bangladesh. We work with all Bangladeshis to help ensure there is a more inclusive political process,” she said.
“I'm confident that the nature of the Bangladeshi people and their culture, coupled with the government's resolve to fight terrorism, will defeat the terrorist threat here,” she said.
Responding to a question on restoration of US trade preference programmes -- Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), she said there has been “tremendous progress” on safety issues. “But much work remains to be done on workers' rights.”
