State Minister for Foreign Affairs Md Shahriar Alam has said the US report on Bangladesh’s human rights practices contains some “misinformation”.
He also said they collected information primarily from the ‘anti-government propaganda machines’.
“We’re thoroughly studying the report and will share in detail with the press on Sunday,” Md Shahriar Alam told reporters as his initial comment was sought on the report, reports UNB.
He said the government will do whatever is necessary to help the US government comes out from the “wrong perception.”
The State Minister pointed out some areas of the report in which the government was blamed without any justification. “It’s wrong. It’s a lie. It’s far from reality.”
The State Department released the 2021 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices, an annual report required by US law.
