Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has arrived in Türkiye for the COP31 global climate conference after choosing a commercial flight instead of a specially chartered aircraft to save public money, according to media reports.
Rahman travelled with a small delegation alongside regular passengers. The choice was intended to limit the additional burden on the national treasury and set an example of restraint in government spending.
According to media reports, the decision has attracted international praise as an example of simplicity and responsible governance. The reported approval centred on his choice to use a regular passenger service rather than arrange a separate aircraft for the official journey.
It could not be independently confirmed when Rahman made the journey.
