France has called upon the major political parties in Bangladesh to resume dialogue within the framework of the country’s democratic institutions.
French Ministry of Foreign Affairs made the call through issuing a statement on the parliamentary elections in Bangladesh on Tuesday.
The statement read: “We call on all parties to demonstrate calm and restraint and encourage the main political forces to resume dialogue within the framework of the country’s democratic institutions.”
It further said France was closely monitoring the situation in Bangladesh, following the holding of elections marked by violence and a very low voter turnout.
