The European Union (EU) on Friday said it has consistently supported Bangladesh's political transition, calling for it to be underpinned by the rule of law, fundamental rights and lead to democratic elections.
"This is a pivotal moment," said the EU Embassy in Dhaka as Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus, in a televised address to the nation, announced a timeline leading to elections.
The EU Delegation called on all stakeholders to engage constructively in this process and to take forward work to define an ambitious reform agenda that will lead to a more stable, more prosperous and democratic Bangladesh.
