Returnees from China to remain under observation: FM

Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen said the government will keep those who will return to Bangladesh under observation to avoid any risk.

He said, “We’re not delaying. We’re fully ready to bring them (Bangladesh citizens) back once China allows.”

The Minister told this to the reporters on Wednesday adding that the government does not want to see the transmission of coronavirus in other places.

The Foreign Minister said the Chinese government remains very strict in following the 14-day quarantine period and did not even accept the proposals of Japan and the USA to take back their nationals.
