Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that he engaged in a brief discussion regarding Bangladesh with newly-appointed US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Wednesday.
When asked if the minority issue in Bangladesh was addressed during his meeting with the US Secretary of State, Jaishankar said, “Yes, we had a brief discussion on Bangladesh. However, I believe it’s not appropriate for me to go into further details.”
He also said there was no discussion on the attacks on Indian consulates in the US or the threat to Indian diplomats in the US.
“I didn’t raise those issues on this occasion,” he said.
