After the political pot-change in Bangladesh, good wind is blowing in Dhaka-Washington relationship.

In this meeting at the highest level, the top leaders of the two countries will discuss where they want to take the bilateral relations in the future, what the priorities can be in identifying the issues of cooperation, related sources said.
Foreign Ministry sources said that after 25 years, the meeting at the highest level of the two countries is going to be held. Earlier in 2000 US President Bill Clinton visited Dhaka.

US presidents usually visit New York for short periods of time to attend the UN General Assembly and do not hold any bilateral meetings. His meeting with Yunus there is very significant and honorable. Dr. Analysts believe that the meeting between Muhammad Yunus and Joe Biden will strengthen the relationship between the two countries and the world will receive the message of Washington's support for Dhaka.
Analysts also say that world-renowned economist Dr. Muhammad Yunus is a popular and known face all over the world. His theory of poverty alleviation through micro-credit is recognized worldwide today. He held important responsibilities in various renowned organizations of the world including the United Nations. Addressed many state legislatures including the Senate. However, this distinguished economist is appearing in a completely new form at this year's UN session.
When asked about this, diplomatic analyst and former ambassador of Bangladesh to the United States. M. Humayun Kabir told Kalbela, Dr. in a new reality. Muhammad Yunus is going to attend the United Nations General Session this time. He is going to be the head of the new government of Bangladesh, which was created through a people's coup. There is no stronger representative for Bangladesh. Because Dr. Yunus himself is the head of government and he is a world-renowned economist. He has a different acceptance among world leaders. When world leaders hear about the current situation in Bangladesh from his mouth, everyone will get an idea of the country's context, current challenges and where it will go in the future.
Dr. Humayun said that there will be some meetings with world leaders on the sidelines during the session of the United Nations General Assembly. The meeting with US President Joe Biden is the most important. Because the meeting with Biden was necessary in the new reality. Apart from the various cooperation possibilities that we can get from them, we are currently facing some challenges regionally. In that case, I think Biden can help us in this regard in the light of bilateral relations. If that happens then it will be very positive for Bangladesh.
