Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen has pledged that Bangladesh will continue supporting the seven priorities of the United Nations (UN) secretary general's action for the peacekeeping agenda.

"Our principled position, rooted in the foreign policy dictum of our Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, serves as a guiding force. This stance consistently propels us to actively participate in the peace endeavours of the UN including promoting a culture of peace, contributing to peacekeeping operations and facilitating peacebuilding," he said.

The foreign minister was speaking as a panellist at the UN Peacekeeping Ministerial in Accra, Ghana, on Wednesday.

Momen, who is leading a high-level Bangladesh delegation, made peacekeeping pledges on behalf of Dhaka at the UN Peacekeeping Ministerial.

Earlier, the Bangladesh foreign minister held a meeting with his Hungarian counterpart, Peter Szijjarto, on the sideline of the ministerial.

The two foreign ministers discussed various issues of mutual interests in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
