Foreign Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud today said that
Bangladesh strongly condemned the attack on former US President Donald Trump at
an election rally.
"Our
position is very clear. We don't want violence in politics... we have deep
concern and we condemn it and we think there should not be any violence in
politics," he said.
The
foreign minister was replying to the reporters in a press conference here at
the foreign ministry.
Former
US president Donald Trump was shot in the ear during a campaign rally on
Saturday in Pennsylvania and was rushed off stage when gunshots were fired.
As
the bangs ran out, 78-year-old Trump grimaced and clutched a hand to his right
ear, with blood soon visible across his face, AFP reported.
Secret
Service agents swarmed onto the podium, surrounded the Republican candidate and
escorted him roughly off the stage, as Trump raised a fist to the crowd in
defiance.
The
suspected shooter was confirmed dead, along with one bystander, US media
reported.
