The new interim government of Bangladesh seems to be getting great success at the international level. It is reported that now America has also decided to support the interim government. Recently, the chief advisor of the interim government, Mohammad Yunus, met US President Joe Biden. The special thing is that America is also being accused of conspiring to change power in Bangladesh.
According to media reports, a press note issued from the office of the Chief Advisor said that Biden has promised full support to the interim government of Bangladesh. According to the press note, Biden said that if students can sacrifice so much for their country, then they should help a little more. Yunus and Biden met in New York on Tuesday on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly session.
On September 15, a high-level US delegation met Mohammad Yunus in Bangladesh’s capital Dhaka. According to reports, assurances were given then about economic expansion and political relations.
On August 8, Yunus was sworn in as the chief advisor of the interim government of Bangladesh. The ongoing student movement against quota in government jobs in the country turned violent from the beginning of August. After this, on August 5, the then Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and left the country and came to India. Since then she is in India. There are reports that Bangladesh may try for her extradition.
Sheikh Hasina had expressed apprehension
Hasina said that if she had compromised on the sovereignty of St. Martin Island and allowed the US to have influence over the Bay of Bengal, she could have remained the Prime Minister. However, the former Bangladesh PM’s son Shajib Wazed denied that his mother had made any such statement. At the same time, the US also denied interfering in the internal affairs of Bangladesh.
