President of the 75th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) Volkan Bozkir on Tuesday remembered Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as a world leader committed to peace, human rights and sustainable development.
“I am reminded today of the statement he delivered to the General Assembly….he outlined the importance of peace, human rights and what is now known as sustainable development – the core pillars of the United Nations,” Bozkir wrote in visitors’ book after visiting Bangabandhu Memorial Museum in Dhanmondi.
Bangabandhu delivered the historic speech at the UNGA on September 25 in 1974.
He said it is a great pleasure to visit Bangabandhu Memorial Museum and pay his respect to the Father of the Nation in this centenary year of his birth.
