Mahdi Amin said that one of the key aspirations of the July Mass Uprising was to establish an independent, sovereign, and democratic Bangladesh—a state system where there would be no room for subservient foreign policy, and where equality, fair treatment, and national interest would be given the highest priority in bilateral and multilateral relations.
He further said that the new state vision has been developed with the goal of establishing Bangladesh as a self-respecting nation on the world map.
