DHAKA (Reuters) - Bangladesh's interim leader Muhammad Yunus hopes ties with the U.S., the biggest buyer of Bangladeshi clothes, will strengthen despite strong criticism from President-elect Donald Trump on violence against minorities in the Muslim-majority nation.
"Foreign policies don't usually change because of a change in the president," Yunus told The Hindu newspaper, referring to Trump's victory in this month's U.S. presidential election.
