Bangladesh to host D-8 council of ministers 20th session 27 July
Bangladesh will host the 20th session of the Council of Ministers of D-8, also known as Developing-8, on 27 July.
The country already invited the foreign ministers of D-8 members.
D-8 is an organisation for development cooperation among Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia, Nigeria, Pakistan and Turkiye.
The establishment of D-8 was announced officially through the Istanbul Declaration of Summit of Heads of State or Government on 15 June, 1997. It is a global arrangement rather than a regional one, as the composition of its members reflects.
Bangladesh will also host the 45th session of the D-8 Commission from 25 to 26 July.
