The US considers Bangladesh as the centerpiece in its Indo-Pacific Strategy, said US Deputy Secretary of State Stephen Beigun today.

"Bangladesh's geostrategic location and continuous economic growth and stability makes it more attractive for the US," he said after a meeting with Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen at the State Guesthouse Padma.

Beigun arrived in Dhaka Wednesday afternoon, after a three-day visit to India.
