France with BD in its march forward: Envoy

Dhaka-France has reaffirmed its commitment to accompany Bangladesh in its march towards the future by sharing their experiences, technologies and cooperating for a better understanding of the environment.“Supporting Bangladesh in some key projects is our way to accompany Bangladesh in its march towards the future,” said France Ambassador in Dhaka Sophie Aubert in a message on the occasion of French National Day that falls on July 14.
She said building a country needs embracing the diversity of the national sensibilities and perceptions, as they are all what Bangladesh is.
“Our own experience taught us that freedom of expression, diversity and strong institutions are key factors for development,” said the Ambassador.
Aubert said Bangladesh is also committed to its march towards the future and France is supporting Bangladesh in this project.
She said they are proud to say, after World War II and only two generations, their relation with Germany is a strategic relation and a force that they have developed within the European Union.
“We have shown the world that the past is one thing, but the future is ours. We will build a new European Union,” she added.
