President Abdul Hamid (* 1944) was confirmed in office for another five years in April 2018. There was no opponent.

In the parliamentary elections on December 30, 2018, the ruling party Awami League (AL, Awami League) defend their clear majority. Prime Minister Hasina Wajed was sworn in again on 7.1.2019. The opposition leader Khaleda Zia had previously been sentenced to several years in prison for corruption.
