U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's return to the White House next week threatens freedoms at home and abroad, the head of Human Rights Watch said on Thursday, warning that his second term could be more damaging than his first.

Human Rights Watch has published its annual report, warning that Donald Trump's return to power will compound pressure on the world's "fraying" rights system.

The Human Rights Watch, or HRW, warns that even if the government in Bangladesh changes, the practice of human rights violations will remain the same without “systemic reforms”.
