EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on Thursday welcomed the swearing-in of Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus as Bangladesh's interim leader after a student-led uprising ended the 15-year rule of Sheikh Hasina.







"The EU looks forward to engaging with the new administration and to supporting this critical transition which should be part of a peaceful and inclusive process underpinned by good governance, democratic values and respect for human rights," Borrell said.
