Bangladesh’s position above Israel not changed
Bangladesh government in Sunday categorically has said it has not deviated from its position about Israel as Bangladesh remains strong over its longstanding position on this regard.
In a press statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) said that the attention of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has recently been drawn to a twitter issued from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Israel welcoming removing of ban on happen to be Israel on E-passports being issued by Bangladesh.
The confusion appears to have emanated from the new booklets of E-passports which usually do not support the observation “all countries excepting Israel”.
“Removing the observation has been performed to keep international standard of Bangladeshi e-passports and will not imply any change of Bangladesh’s foreign policy towards the Middle East,” reads the statement.
“The ban on travel of Bangladeshi passport holders to Israel is still unchanged. The Government of Bangladesh hasn't deviated from its job on Israel and Bangladesh continues to be strong on its longstanding posture in this regard.”
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT of Bangladesh has condemned the recent atrocities inflicted after the civilians by the occupation forces of Israel in al-Aqsa mosque compound and at Gaza.
Bangladesh reiterates its principled position regarding the two-Status Solution of the Palestine-Israel conflict in light of the UN resolutions recognizing pre-1967 borders and East Jerusalem as the capital of the Talk about of Palestine.
