Monday, 13 July 2015


France Ambassador in Dhaka Sophie Aubert has said a ‘stable and secure framework’ will help Bangladesh fulfill its dream to become a middle-income country by 2021. “Here in Bangladesh, we support the national goal of being a middle-income country (MIC) in 2021. That’s a dream and a goal, which will become reality within a stable and secure framework,” she said terming the goal as an ‘exciting project’. The diplomat made the remark in a message ahead of the National Day of France to be celebrated on July 14. Sophie Aubert said they feel that Bangladesh is living in a transition, and they want to be part of it. “We know we are one of the many partners Bangladesh have, but we want to develop a demanding relationship with Bangladesh. We want to increase our presence here,” she said. On climate issues, the diplomat said they and the French Embassy, through their local actions, want to show that climate change can be an opportunity to change ways of living, producing, consuming and assessing values in Bangladesh, according to a news agency.
