Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain held a crucial bilateral meeting with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi in Beijing on Tuesday, where they explored a broad range of issues and discussed ways to enhance the economic partnership between Bangladesh and China.


The meeting comes ahead of the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries, set to be celebrated in 2025. This milestone marks a significant period of growth in their bilateral ties.

Hossain’s visit, at the invitation of Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, is considered a pivotal "first bilateral visit" following the formation of the interim government led by Nobel Laureate Dr. Yunus in August last year.

Bangladesh views this visit as a key opportunity to solidify and expand its relationship with China, setting the stage for future collaboration in various sectors.

Adviser Hossain is scheduled to return to Dhaka on January 24.
