From 25 February to 6 March, at the invitation of the International Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee (IDCPC), a 21-member delegation from Bangladesh—including representatives from political parties, student leaders, scholars, and journalists — visited China. This marked the first occasion on which China extended an official invitation to a large, cross-sectoral Bangladeshi delegation, an event that has been described as a significant diplomatic milestone in China-Bangladesh relations.
