United Nations Resident Coordinator in Bangladesh, Gwyn Lewis’s Perspective

United Nations Resident Coordinator in Bangladesh, Gwyn Lewis, said, in an interview on 6th Aug, the Resident Coordinator spoke about the recent developments in Bangladesh via video link from Dhaka.

She said that the UN has been doing what it can as a system, echoing the Secretary-General’s call for “calm and restraint” and the High Commissioner for refugees’ call for “independent, impartial and transparent investigation to help Bangladesh understand what has happened over the past weeks, but also to hold perpetrators to account and to rebuild trust within the society.”
