bangladesh politics 2023
All the King’s Men
Our political leaders' reluctance to engage in dialogue and to uphold the tenets of democracy may erode public trust in them.
No excuse good enough for forgoing dialogue
Politicians must give talks a chance to break stalemate
Politics of Fire
Let the truth be known: no one has any idea what’s going to happen to Bangladeshi politics.
Compromise, not violence, must be the way out
Saturday’s violence may only be a premonition of much worse days to come
Did BNP make the wrong call?
BNP’s real loss in announcing the sit-ins without proper coordination was giving the upper hand to the ruling party

Authorities must prevent violence and legal intimidation targeting BNP activists
Dialogue not on AL’s mind at the moment
The Awami League at this point is not considering talks with the BNP to solve the current political impasse over the next general elections.
