Leader of the Opposition in Parliament Raushan Ershad had talks with US Secretary of State John Kerry yesterday and briefly discussed on how both countries can better fight against terrorism, UNB reports.
Touching upon issues of Bangladesh’s interest, Raushan told Kerry that prosperity can defeat terrorism and laid emphasis on job-oriented education so that more employments can be generated in Bangladesh.
She shared with the reporters what she told Kerry during her apparently informal discussion at the EMK Center.
They had the discussion right after Kerry’s scheduled event with civil society representatives, media, labour leaders and youngsters without any seating arrangements.
Earlier, Raushan was seen seated on the second row of the audience and later placed on the front row after spending a few words.
