US Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs Michele J Sison will travel to India, Bangladesh, and Kuwait on August 2-10.

Sison will have consultations on a range of US multilateral priorities, including combating food insecurity, advancing global health, addressing human rights and humanitarian needs, peacekeeping and peacebuilding, and support for Rohingya refugees.

Her meetings with senior government officials will focus on opportunities to deepen our cooperation at the United Nations, and US support for the candidacy of Doreen Bogdan-Martin to become the next Secretary-General of the International Telecommunication Union, according to the US Department of State.

In meetings with civil society leaders, the Assistant Secretary will exchange ideas on how the United States and other countries can collaborate on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, reports UNB.

Sison was sworn in as Assistant Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs on December 21, 2021.

She served as US Ambassador to Sri Lanka and Maldives (2012-2014), U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon (2008-2010), and US Ambassador to the United Arab Emirates (2004-2008).

America is probably sending her to balance the visit by the Chinese FM to Dhaka.

I wonder, what reactions our Alga Momen will express to show his pleasure or displeasure.

BD needs to insist on no joint visit to BD along side india just as india insist on no Pakistan/India joint visit.

Give her pantha baath - looks like she needs it. Then send her home.

Hopefully, toupee wala will find a way to insult her as well.

Bangladesh needs to stay away from US geopolitics at all cost.

Uncle Sam cannot afford to be too belligerent because that will only push BD to China’s orbit.

China is providing a good buffer for BD. Otherwise BD would be at the mercy of US and it’s Hinduvta coolies.
