Foreign Secretary Md Jashim Uddin and UN Under Secretary General for Economic and Social Affairs Li Junh had "fruitful discussions" about UN's technical and policy support in transparency and accountability areas.

Highlighting the negative impact of poly-crisis on developing countries like Bangladesh, the foreign secretary emphasised UN's support towards a smooth transition from LDC, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
