On August 10, Ambassador Yao Wen met with members of the Bangladesh-China Parliamentary Friendship Group of the Jatiya Sangsad. The two sides had an exchange of views on China-Bangladesh relations, exchanges between the two legislatures, and other issues of mutual interest.

Ambassador Yao noted that Prime Minister Tarique Rahman paid a successful visit to China this June, during which the leaders of the two countries jointly announced the elevation of bilateral relations and the building of a China-Bangladesh community with a shared future in the new era. The two leaders also agreed to maintain the momentum of high-level exchanges, strengthen exchanges of governance experience, and deepen exchanges and cooperation between the governments, legislatures and political parties of the two countries. Against this backdrop, the establishment of the Bangladesh-China Parliamentary Friendship Group is of great significance for implementing the important consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries and further promoting mutual learning between China and Bangladesh.

Members of the Friendship Group said that China has accumulated rich experience and achieved remarkable results in governance, and that its practices in areas such as advancing the rule of law and promoting democracy at the grassroots level offer valuable experience for Bangladesh. They expressed their readiness to deepen exchanges and cooperation between the legislatures of the two countries and work together to bring practical cooperation between China and Bangladesh in various fields to a new level.
