Yunus has called Bangladeshi politics “a bottleneck” to the country’s aspirations. “There’s no ideological fight between them,” Yunus said of the leaders in an interview here this week. “They go back to what your husband did, what your father did. They have to fight because they came into politics because of their legacy. There’s no substance in the politics.”
“Why don’t you just sit down and settle the whole thing?” Yunus wondered aloud.
