Bangladesh is purchasing liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the U.S.-based company Excelerate Energy to meet the country’s energy demands, Economic Adviser Dr. Salehuddin Ahmed stated. He emphasized that the decision is based on national requirements, not personal connections, despite former ambassador Peter Haas’s association with the company. Dr. Ahmed also clarified that importing wheat from the U.S. at higher prices to reduce the trade deficit will not affect consumers, and allegations of corruption in urea imports are under ministry investigation.
