“America is a very pragmatic government. America was not with us in 1971, but after achieving victory, it supported us for United Nations membership. We hope they will continue supporting Bangladesh after forming the government, as they have in the past,” he said.
He made these remarks while talking to reporters after offering prayers at Hazrat Shahjalal (R.) Mosjid on Friday.
“If foreigners offer good advice, we will accept it. If they turn against us, we know how to counter it,” the minister added.
