In Bangladesh, the country’s new prime minister, Tarique Rahman, was sworn in Tuesday after his party’s landslide win in parliamentary elections. Rahman returned to Bangladesh last year after 17 years of self-imposed exile in the United Kingdom. Voters also approved a raft of changes to Bangladesh’s constitution aimed at preventing authoritarianism. This comes after Bangladesh’s former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was sentenced to death for ordering a deadly crackdown on student protesters who successfully toppled her government in 2024. The U.N. reports 1,400 people were killed and thousands were injured in the crackdown.
