Bangladesh National Day – United States Department of State

On behalf of the United States of America, I congratulate the people of Bangladesh as they celebrate their day of independence on March 26.

This celebration comes at a pivotal point in Bangladesh’s history, as the Interim Government prepares the nation for elections that will allow the people of Bangladesh to choose the path forward for their nation. The United States supports Bangladesh in its journey toward a bright and democratic future. We look forward to continuing our partnership promoting economic development and regional security in the Indo-Pacific.

As Bangladesh marks this special occasion, I extend my warm regards to its people and reaffirm the United States’ commitment to working together to make both our nations safer, stronger, and more prosperous.
