What's new

Don't know about additional US sanctions, says Bangladesh Foreign Minister Momen in response to report

Comedic statement of the year by a Hasina underling: "We can have our own visa policy too" - says Obaidul Quader​


"The United States has said the new visa policy will be applicable to those responsible for, or complicit in, undermining the democratic election process in Bangladesh. We'll observe whether this visa policy is realistic or blind and deaf," the minister said.

We can have our own visa policy too: Obaidul Quader


Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader has said Bangladesh is not concerned about the new US visa policy.

"We can have our own visa policy as well. We are capable of implementing it too. Just wait and see," he said while briefing the media after observing a 4.5 km section of a BRT project in Tongi.

"The United States has said the new visa policy will be applicable to those responsible for, or complicit in, undermining the democratic election process in Bangladesh. We'll observe whether this visa policy is realistic or blind and deaf," the minister said.

He mentioned that a significant project worth around Tk5,000 crore – aimed at ensuring safer roads – is currently underway in collaboration with the World Bank.

Regarding the BRT project, he said, "This project has progressed quite far considering the timeframe. However, there is a dilemma and doubt surrounding its completion. It would have been better if the project had been thoroughly evaluated before its initiation in Gazipur."

He raised concerns that the road infrastructure projects could exacerbate traffic congestion and adversely affect the entire capital.

Addressing the challenges faced in the transportation sector, the minister stressed maintaining order and discipline.

He acknowledged the obstacles and stated that they must be overcome.

He assured that the entire project is scheduled to be completed by September or October, and preparations are underway for its inauguration.

Furthermore, plans are in motion to construct an elevated expressway to Tejgaon before the upcoming election, he said.

"The Metro Rail project is also progressing, with the goal of reaching Motijheel by September or October," Quader added.
Yes, every country has its visa and other policies and each country is free to change them.

I propose BD to cancel visa of those Ambassadors whose countries cancelled Visa for a number of Bangladeshis.

Why this Kawwa Qader is waiting? He should cancel the Visa of American Ambassador and expel him out from our Golden Bangladesh.

This is how Kawwa Quadrr would be doing a great job.

Sanctions on BD govt officials under Magnitsky Act is very much a possibility. In fact it could have been done a long time ago with BAL record of HR violations and political oppression.

US clearly doing this for their own geo political interest, but it may have a positive side effect. Unless, Hasina cuts a deal and gives Uncle what it wants and US looks the other way just as they are doing with Pakistan.
As far as I know the US Treasury Deptt has imposed sanctions already under the Magnitsky Act or what on RAB officials.

Taking geopolitical advantage by China is the matter of concern for America. It does not want China to enter the BoB via Burma.

America alone cannot accomplish it without BD understanding and cooperation. But, Hasina wants Chinese money to fill her stomach. BD’s sovereignty bears no meaning to her.

A fair election gives an opportunity to oust the BAL party.

This is how Kaikan Quadra would be doing a gyrat job.
bluesky bhai, can't you see that Obaidul Quader is making such nonsensical statement out of frustration? উনার লুঙ্গি ঢিলা হয়ে গেছে।:bunny:
