The Gambia and Bangladesh just made travel easier for government officials by signing a deal that lets diplomats skip visas. This agreement brings both countries closer than ever before.
During the signing event, The Gambia showed strong support for how Bangladesh is handling the Rohingya crisis. Dr. Mamadou Tangara from The Gambia spoke clearly about his country's dedication to helping these refugees.
Dr. Tangara leads foreign affairs for The Gambia and explained how his country fights for Rohingya rights at the International Court of Justice. The Gambia currently heads the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and pushes hard for justice.
He stressed that their goal goes beyond punishing those responsible for crimes against the Rohingya people. They want to create a future where these refugees can safely return home with all their basic rights protected.
Dr. Tangara praised Bangladesh for taking care of more than a million Rohingya refugees. He promised The Gambia would keep providing legal help and diplomatic backing in this humanitarian effort.
Both nations have already won important legal battles, but Dr. Tangara believes they must keep working together. They must maintain pressure on the world stage until they find lasting solutions for the refugee crisis.
Dr. Tangara mentioned a recent meeting at the Bangladesh Institute, at which everyone agreed that the Rohingya issue must stay at the top of the global agenda. He also talked about expanding partnerships between the two nations.
The Gambia hopes to learn farming techniques from Bangladesh, which has become self-sufficient in food production. With fertile farmland available, The Gambia sees huge potential benefits from agricultural teamwork with Bangladesh.
The two countries also plan to join forces in United Nations peacekeeping missions. Dr. Tangara specifically mentioned Bangladesh's excellent reputation in this area and said The Gambia wants to partner on future peacekeeping operations.
