It’s great to see that the defenders of the deposed dictator are now cheerleaders for Volker Türk and UN Human Rights after he shared concerns about developments in Bangladesh. I wonder if this newfound respect for the UN’s work applies retroactively? As for the substance

Kudos to Bangladesh America Alliance 🇧🇩🇺🇸 and Sultan Mohammed Zakaria for this informative and engaging discussion about the National Citizen Party reform proposals. So much of the political discussion in Bangladesh is about elections, so it was refreshing to hear about policies.
