Dhaka continues tariff negotiations with Washington

Bangladesh has continued its consultations with the United States on finalising the Agreement on Reciprocal Tariff.

The latest round of discussions took place on Thursday where the Bangladesh side was led by National Security Advisor Dr. Khalilur Rahman and the US side by US Assistant Trade Representative Brendan Lynch.

"We made very good progress during our consultations with the US team. Both sides are making serious efforts to finalise the agreement expeditiously," said Rahman, a former trade policy chief of the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).
