The last two weeks in Bangladesh have seen unprecedented levels of violence and tragic loss of life.

My thoughts are with all those who have lost loved ones and all those affected. The people of Bangladesh deserve a full and independent UN-led investigation into the events of the past few weeks.  The UK wants to see action taken to ensure Bangladesh a peaceful and democratic future. Please see the U.K. government’s statement on Bangladesh.
