Manage episode 432863470 series 2829213
The UN continues to monitor fast-moving developments in Bangladesh after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina fled the country on Monday following weeks of student protests that left hundreds dead.
Young people took to the streets to demand an end to a quota system for civil servant jobs, which was later withdrawn.
To find out more about the crisis, UN News’s Anshu Sharma in Delhi spoke to the UN Resident Coordinator in Bangladesh, Gwyn Lewis, who said the mood in the country is hopeful, with “a sense of opportunity”.
Ms. Lewis also expressed hopes for a new interim government - which will reportedly be led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus - while noting the critical role the UN plays in issues such as bolstering constitutional justice and supporting institutional reform.
