Russian foreign minister arrives in Bangladesh
DHAKA, Bangladesh (AA) – In a first, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov landed in Bangladesh’s capital Dhaka on Thursday for high-level talks on the bilateral interests of the two countries.
Bangladeshi Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen welcomed his Russian counterpart, who is paying a one-day visit, at the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, where the top diplomats held an initial formal welcoming meeting.
Lavrov will also hold a meeting with Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Friday morning before he leaves Dhaka for New Delhi to attend the Group of 20 summit.
The Russian foreign minister suspended his scheduled visit to Bangladesh in November last year.
