DHAKA, May 1, 2025 (BSS) - Chief Adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam has said Bangladesh respects the sovereignty and independence of all nations.

"Bangladesh respects the sovereignty and independence of all nations and expects the same from others," he wrote in a statement posted on his verified Facebook account on Wednesday night.

Alam said the comments made by Major General (retired) ALM Fazlur Rahman, the head of the BDR commission, in his social media account yesterday was made in his personal capacity.

The interim government does not share his views in any shape or form and does not endorse such rhetorics, he said.

"We urge all not to drag the government of Bangladesh in reference to Major Gen Fazlur Rahman’s personal comments," the press secretary said.
