Bloomberg calls US visa curbs on Bangladesh “neither fair nor sensible”

New York-based Bloomberg news agency has described the recently imposed US visa restrictions on Bangladesh a “sort of open bullying” and called the action “neither fair nor sensible”.
The financial-biased major international media outlet carried an article titled “Biden Democracy Crusade Goes Astray in Bangladesh” on its October 9 issue where it also called the last month US announcement relating to the visa restrictions on certain unnamed Bangladeshis “a rather vague statement”.
Bloomberg Opinion columnist and a senior fellow at the Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi Mihir Sharma wrote the article, which also harshly criticized incumbent Bangladesh government political policies and actions saying “politically, the country is not quite as exemplary”.
