Bangladesh’s Chief Adviser, Professor Muhammad Yunus, held a bilateral meeting with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on Tuesday. He also met with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif during another UNGA event at the UN headquarters.
Prof Yunus shared the stage with former US President Bill Clinton at the Clinton Global Initiative 2024. Additionally, he met with IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva during the UNGA session.
Yunus attended a High-Level Side Event on the Rohingya crisis and later spoke at a reception marking the 50th anniversary of Bangladesh’s membership in the United Nations.
Earlier in the day, Prof Yunus had a historic bilateral meeting with US President Joseph R. Biden, the first of its kind between a US president and a Bangladeshi head of government during the UNGA.
