Dhaka has urged Slovakia to recruit a good number of Bangladeshi workers in various sectors including automotive industry and facilitate Slovak visa for Bangladeshi citizens.

The call was made when Foreign Adviser Md Touhid Hossain and Information and Broadcasting Adviser Md Mahfuz Alam had a meeting with Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of Slovakia Juraj Blanár on the sidelines of the 'Antalya Diplomacy Forum (ADF)2025' in Antalya, Turkey yesterday (11 April), said a foreign ministry's press release. 

During their meeting, both sides acknowledged the importance of further strengthening the relationship between Bangladesh and Slovakia, which is grounded in shared values, principles, and mutual understanding.

They expressed their commitment to enhancing bilateral ties across various areas of shared interest.

The foreign adviser emphasised the need for boosting cooperation in the field of bilateral trade, investment and economic collaboration.

He apprised of Bangladesh's potential as investment destination and urged to send a Slovak delegation to Bangladesh to find the potentials of trade and investment.

Hossain further proposed that the Slovak Republic can follow the 'Talent Partnership' model of the European Union to recruit Bangladeshi workers in various sectors.

They also discussed ways for enhancing cooperation in different multilateral fora.

The Slovak minister agreed to enhance B to B connection and send a business team to Bangladesh to explore opportunities for investment.

Bangladesh ambassador to Turkey and other senior officials from both the sides attended the meeting.

The three-day ADF 2025 kicked off today in Antalya hosted by the Turkish foreign ministry with the theme, "Reclaiming Diplomacy in a Fragmented World", under the patronage of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

This year's theme reflects the pressing need for diplomacy to reassert itself as a stabilising force, amid rising global divisions.

The ADF gathered global leaders, policymakers, academics, business experts and as well as representatives of media and civil society to explore how diplomacy can turn the tide and navigate us through a fragmented world to find a common ground for collective action.

More than 20 heads of state and government, over 50 foreign ministers, more than 70 ministers, and approximately 60 senior representatives from international organisations, as well as over 4,000 guests, including students attended the forum.
