DHAKA (Reuters) - The United States is committed to supporting Bangladesh's inclusive economic growth, institution building and development and will provide an additional $202 million of aid, a U.S. delegation said during a visit to Dhaka on Sunday.
The six-member delegation, led by Deputy Under Secretary of the Treasury Department Brent Neiman, is the first from the U.S. since the interim government headed by Nobel laureate took office last month following the ousting of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina after deadly protests.
