Bangladesh held a general election, with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's ruling party facing opposition boycotts and allegations of one-party rule. The election was boycotted by the main opposition party, leading to concerns about credibility and independence. The United States and Western nations have called for a free and fair election, citing concerns about the country's democracy and human rights violations. The economy of Bangladesh has also faced challenges due to the Russia-Ukraine war, prompting a bailout funding of $4.7 billion from the International Monetary Fund.
