Speaking at an Iftar program for journalists covering foreign affairs in Bangladesh, he mentioned that she received an invitation from the G7, a group known as the influential leaders of the world. It is a matter of pride for them, as the ruling Awami League's central sub-committee on international affairs hosted the event with Obaidul Quader as the chief guest. The Chairman Ambassador Mohammad Zamir, International Affairs Secretary Shammi Ahmed, and other members were also in attendance. The Prime Minister is currently in Canada to participate in the G7 outreach session, following an invitation from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. This elite club has invited Hasina for the third time as the leader of a developing country, which Foreign Minister Abul Hassan Mahmood Ali described as "unprecedented". Hasina has previously attended meetings in Japan in 2016 and Italy in 2001. Before leaving Dhaka on Thursday, Ali stated that this invitation is a recognition of the prime minister's strong role in world peace and development, as well as her efforts in addressing climate change, women and children affairs, and the blue economy. The other members of the grouping include France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, and the US. The prime minister is scheduled to discuss 'enhancing resilience through comprehensive adaptation planning, preparedness for emergencies, and recovery' in a speech. Prior to her return to Dhaka on Tuesday, she will hold a bilateral meeting with Trudeau on Sunday. During the Iftar, the Awami League's sub-committee on international affairs introduced themselves to journalists, highlighting that the committee was recently formed. Shammi Ahmed encouraged journalists to provide constructive criticism when discussing government actions.
