Chief Adviser Prof. Dr. Muhammad Yunus recently made a speech that reiterated Bangladesh’s commitment to national unity, universal human rights, and zero tolerance for discrimination based on religion, ethnicity, or political convictions. Acting Australian High Commissioner Nardia Simpson has commended this remark.
According to a press statement from the mission, she made the comments at a meeting with leaders of the Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Unity Council, Nirmol Rozario and Bhikkhu Sunandapriya, at the Australian High Commission here today.
They talked about the aspirations and worries of Bangladesh’s religious minority groups throughout the discussion.
“Australia is built on the foundation of diversity, multiculturalism, and tolerance. Mutual understanding between people and the appreciation of diverse cultures and forms of expression are core values for Australia,” the statement from the Australian mission read.
Australia remains committed to upholding universal human rights and supports the fundamental role democracy plays in protecting these rights, it added.
