Chief Adviser Dr Muhammad Yunus had conducted bilateral meetings with the Italian and Pakistan Prime Minister and top bosses of the IMF, UNHCR and IMO at the side line of UNGA along with his crucial bi-lateral meeting with the US President Joe-Biden.
Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on Tuesday called to open "a new page" in the relationships between Rome and Dhaka.
Dr Yunus gave a brief outline of the student-led mass uprising, which he said has created new opportunities in Bangladesh, pressing "the reset button" for the entire nation.
Meloni said Italy would support the Dr Yunus-led Interim Government in its move to carry out vital reforms in key sectors.
"Absolutely, you can count on us," she said.
"Let's try to open a new page in our relationship," she added.
The Chief Adviser has urged the Italian leader to formalise migration from Bangladesh, paving the way for the entry of more Bangladeshi workers in Italy through the legal channels, which he said would cut risky illegal migration.
Meloni agreed, saying both nations should work together to stop irregular migration and conduct training for people planning to work in Italy.
Energy and Power adviser Fouzul Kabir Khan and senior secretary Lamiya Morshed and chief of protocol Khandaker Masudul Alam were present during the meeting.
He also had a meeting with Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on a sidelines event of the UNGA at the UN headquarters.
