Trump’s aide Curtis’ Dhaka visit postponed
The planned Dhaka visit of US President Donald Trump's Deputy Assistant Lisa Curtis has been postponed at the last moment.
The US side cited "bad weather" in Washington as reason behind the postponement, a senior foreign ministry official told UNB this afternoon.
Lisa Curtis, also senior director for South and Central Asia at the National Security Council, was scheduled to arrive Dhaka on Sunday morning in a brief visit and both sides took all the preparations for the visit.
She, as per the draft programme schedule, was scheduled to meet Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Foreign Minister AH Mahmood Ali and foreign secretary M Shahidul Haque and others.
Lisa Curtis was a senior research fellow on South Asia in The Heritage Foundation before joining the White House where she used to focus on US national security interests and regional geopolitics as senior research fellow on South Asia in The Heritage Foundation's Asian Studies Center.
