The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bangladesh has instructed its ambassadors and high Commissioners in seven countries to return to Dhaka, according to local newspaper The Daily Ittefaq.
Ambassador Mohammad Imran to the United States, Kamrul Ahsan to Russia, Javed Patwari to Saudi Arabia, Shahabuddin Ahmed to Japan, Musharraf Hossein Bhuyan to Germany, Abu Jafar to the UAE, and Abul Kalam Azad to Malaysia are due to return to Bangladesh.
There have been large-scale protests in Bangladesh since the end of June. Their participants demanded to eliminate the quota system, which reserved up to 30% of state debts for family members of veterans who participated in the war for the country's independence in 1971. The protesters called the quota system discriminatory.
On July 21, the Supreme Court of Bangladesh abolished most of the quotas for public posts, but protests continued. On August 5, against their background, the country's Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina, resigned and fled to India. President of Bangladesh Mohammed Shahabuddin on the same day announced the dissolution of parliament and the formation of an interim government. It was headed by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus, says RBC.
