Bangladesh has publicly supported Spain’s position on Catalonia, a region where Madrid imposed central rule, suspending its autonomy after the Catalonia parliament declared independence.Dhaka endorsed the measures taken by the central government in Madrid and voiced its support for the territorial integrity of the European nation, Bangladesh’s fourth largest export destination.
“Bangladesh and Spain enjoy friendly bilateral relations, which continue to develop further in various fields based on shared values for the principle of mutual respect for each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and mutual non-interference in each other’s internal affairs,” said a statement issued by the Foreign Ministry yesterday.
“Guided by the fundamental principles of international law, Bangladesh views the developments in Catalonia as the internal affair of the Kingdom of Spain,” it said. “Bangladesh supports constitutional measures undertaken by the Spanish government to uphold national unity and territorial integrity and believe that social order would prevail by safeguarding the rights and interests of all its citizens,” it added.
