Alison Blake said this is an “important juncture” for both the countries as the UK prepares to leave the UK and to reforge new, stronger trading relationships and as Bangladesh develops and advances. Blake was meeting the reporters under the Diplomatic Correspondents Association, Bangladesh’s (DCAB) flagship event ‘DCABtalk’ at the National Press Club on Tuesday. She said it was clear through the dialogue that the UK wants a “stronger, deeper partnership” with Bangladesh. “We are a key and dependable partner in Bangladesh’s journey to middle income status and beyond,” the High Commissioner said, congratulating Bangladesh on meeting the criteria for graduation. On Bangladesh’s elections, she said the UK would not interfere in the internal political affairs of Bangladesh.
