Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will depart from Beijing, China on Wednesday (July 10) at 6 pm Bangladeshi time.

The Bangladeshi premier had arrived in Beijing on Monday (July 9) on a four-day visit. Initially, it was planned that she would return to Bangladesh on Thursday morning (July 11). However, the trip has been shortened, and she will depart on Wednesday night.

Dr Hasan Mahmud, the Foreign Minister said this in a press briefing in Beijing.

He said, “This adjustment does not affect her official schedule; the only change is that she will return tonight instead of tomorrow morning as originally planned.”

During the Beijing visit, Bangladesh and China have inked 21 documents, including two extended Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs), and announced seven more projects aimed at promoting their "comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership" above their previous "strategic partnership."
