Yunus, who was in Paris for the Olympics, thanked the student activists who led the protests against the Prime Minister and emphasized the importance of peace in moving forward. He condemned violence and expressed his commitment to bringing those responsible to justice. Yunus is set to be sworn in as the interim leader on Thursday night and has expressed his desire to assess the situation in Bangladesh and work towards finding solutions. While the timing of elections remains uncertain, Yunus is optimistic about the potential for positive change in the country.
