Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said stronger regional and international cooperation is necessary in the coming days for mitigating the impact of the pandemic and for the rebuilding phase.

"The evolving pandemic has propagated beyond a health crisis into a growing threat on socio-economic systems and livelihoods. To counter the impact of this unknown enemy, Bangladesh has shared excellent cooperation with Bhutan and other South Asian neighbours and beyond," she said while addressing the Bangladesh-Bhutan PTA signing ceremony.

Meanwhile, Bhutanese Prime Minister Dr Lotay Tshering highly appreciated Hasina's leadership, saying that Bangladesh is making an impressive economic recovery from the pandemic.
