U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy
Bangladesh
Secretary of State Hillary ClintonFortyyears ago, U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy became the first American statesman to visit Bangladesh.  That historic visit was the start of an enduring friendship between our two nations, a friendship that is rooted in our shared democratic values, our strong economic ties, and our deep people-to-people connections.  
During her visit to Dhaka on May 5th and 6th, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton reaffirmed that friendship, noting that United States and Bangladesh continue to work together on both the regional and global stage.  
We are cooperating to solve some of Bangladesh’s most pressing challenges.  Bangladesh, said Secretary Clinton, is making impressive progress on many important issues.  It is on track to meet its Millennium Development goals by 2015.  Decreasing poverty levels and a rapidly diminishing rate of maternal and child deaths show that Bangladesh has made a strong commitment to improving the lives of its citizens.
