Bangladesh has criticised Washington’s decision to suspend trade privileges over concerns about dangerous working conditions and labour rights. This decision comes after a year-long review of labour practices and workplace safety in Bangladesh. The foreign ministry in Dhaka described the move as harsh, saying the government had taken clear measures to improve safety at clothing factories. “It cannot be more shocking for the factory workers of Bangladesh that the decision to suspend GSP comes at a time when the government of Bangladesh has taken concrete and visible measures to improve factory safety and protect workers’ rights,” a Bangladesh foreign ministry statement said.
