FM flies to Myanmar today to hold talks on border

Thursday, 14 May 2009


Foreign Minister (FM) Dipu Moni leaves today (Thursday) for Myanmar to ask her counterpart not to mobilise troops along the border to implement a recent decision to fence the frontier, a top foreign ministry official said Wednesday. Myanmar on March 15 brought fencing equipment and put troops on standby along Bangladesh border to raise barbed-wire fence just across Naaf river in Cox's Bazar district without informing Dhaka.
