The politics of Bangladesh is once again in turmoil. Former Education Minister Mohibul Hasan Chaudhary has made a sensational claim that there was a conspiracy by America to topple the government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in August 2024. In an interview given to Russia Today (RT), he said that this entire incident was created by the alliance of USAID, Clinton Foundation and Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus. According to Chaudhary, the Clinton family and USAID made a strategy for regime change in Bangladesh in the name of development programs.”
The former minister alleged that anti-Hasina organizations were being promoted since 2018 through USAID funding. He says that Western NGOs and some local groups were given assistance in the name of democracy and human rights, but the real objective was to spread political instability. He claimed that there is an old relationship between Clinton Foundation and Mohammad Yunus and this network was used to strengthen the anti-Hasina coalition.
How did the political scenario of Bangladesh change?
Protests against Hasina government intensified in Bangladesh during June-July 2024. When the army refused to take action, the government’s hold weakened. On August 5, Sheikh Hasina had to take refuge in India and on the same day Mohammad Yunus was appointed interim Prime Minister.
Sheikh Hasina’s old allegations and controversies
Sheikh Hasina has earlier also accused America of politics of pressure. He said that he had refused to give St. Martin’s Island for American military use, after which political pressure increased. This island is considered very important from strategic point of view for both India and China.
New diplomatic tussle in South Asia
After Sheikh Hasina’s departure, the impact on India-Bangladesh relations is now visible. During the Hasina government, there was a deep relationship of cooperation between the two countries, but now the inclination of the new government seems to be towards China and Pakistan.
