Protect rights of people of all faiths: US to Bangladesh
Hindustan Times Amritsar
|December 25, 2024
The protection of the human rights of all Bangladeshi citizens, irrespective of religion, figured in a phone conversation between US National Security Advisor (NSA) Jake Sullivan and interim government chief Muhammad Yunus against the backdrop of attacks on Bangladesh's Hindu minority.
NEW DELHI:
Sullivan, who spoke with Yunus on Monday evening, reiterated US backing for a stable and democratic Bangladesh, according to readout from the White House. "Both leaders expressed their commitment to respecting and protecting the human rights of all people, regardless of religion," the readout said without giving details.
India and the US have expressed concern in recent months about reports of the targeting of Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh following the ouster of the government led by former premier Sheikh Hasina in August. Bangladesh's caretaker administration has described these reports as exaggerated and Yunus has said he is committed to protecting the rights of all Hindus.
