Foreign Affairs Adviser Touhid Hossain has said the government communicates its official stance on upcoming elections to all international partners. According to him, elections are expected to take place between December and June.

Touhid noted that irregular travel activities are causing issues abroad, including visa suspensions from several countries—problems largely caused by Bangladeshis themselves. He emphasized internal accountability before blaming others. On the issue of U.S. student visas, he said the government has no direct influence. On the bright side, he mentioned India’s cancellation of transshipment facilities has had no negative effect on Bangladesh, as alternatives have been established.
