'I could have stayed in power if...': Hasina alleges US sought regime change in Bangladesh​

Hasina's son previously said protests were likely instigated by a foreign intelligence agency

Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, now residing in India, has accused the United States of playing a role in her removal from power.

In a statement quoted by the Economic Times, Hasina claimed she could have remained in office had she been willing to compromise Bangladesh's sovereignty, particularly by surrendering Saint Martin Island and allowing US influence over the Bay of Bengal.

“I resigned so that I did not have to see the procession of dead bodies. They wanted to come to power over the dead bodies of students, but I did not allow it", the ousted Bangladeshi PM said.

"I could have remained in power if I had surrendered the sovereignty of Saint Martin Island and allowed America to hold sway over the Bay of Bengal," Hasina stated, urging her countrymen not to be manipulated by radical elements.

Saint Martin Island, a small 3-square-kilometer landmass in the Bay of Bengal, is situated near the southern tip of Bangladesh.

Hasina expressed deep sorrow over the violence and unrest that followed her resignation on August 5, amid growing student protests against the controversial quota system for government jobs.

The unrest, which included killings, harassment, and vandalism, led to concerns for Hasina’s safety, prompting her to leave Dhaka on a military aircraft. She is currently under protection at an undisclosed location in India.

“My heart cries upon receiving news that many leaders have been killed, workers are being harassed, and their homes are subjected to vandalism and arson. With the grace of almighty Allah, I will return soon".

"Awami League has stood up again and again. I shall forever pray for the future of Bangladesh, the nation which my great father strived for," she said.

Hasina also addressed the ongoing student protests, clarifying that her previous comments were distorted to incite unrest.

"I have never called you Razakars. My words were distorted to incite you. Conspirators have taken advantage of your innocence and used you to destabilize the nation," she said, urging students to view the full context of her statements.

Previously, during a parliamentary session, Hasina accused the US of attempting to orchestrate a regime change in Bangladesh.

Her son, Sajeeb Wazed Joy, echoed these concerns, suggesting that the recent protests were likely instigated by a foreign intelligence agency, though he refrained from explicitly naming the US

The United States has been consistently critical of Bangladesh’s human rights record and electoral processes.

There is a grain of truth in that. US protects murderous leaders who do their bidding.

And topples those that do not.

But her mistake was losing China and not denouncing the ridiculous quota system.

I cannot believe she thought BAL could get away with the ridiculous quota system.

She has no one to blame but her stubbornness and hubris.

Anyway, if any BD leader cedes even an inch to the US - BAL will be back with vengeance.

So, current and future leaders be aware!!

BAL practically tried to make Bangladesh its own fiefdom. But they failed spectacularly.

Any leader in the Islamic world who does not comply with U.S. interests is labeled as a Kafir and anti-Islamic, leading to a U.S.-supported Islamic revolution in that country.

Doesn’t matter what I think!

But Bangladeshi people might accept Chinese presence to thwart Hinduvta hatred.

Hindus are responsible for 3/4 of online hate and misinformation - according to Washington Post and other mainstream media orgs.

And ofcourse personally see it on Facebook, YouTube and X/Twitter.

There is a lot of truth there. Pakistan and Afghanistan are examples.

Secular Bhutto killed.
Communists overthrown in Afghanistan by US backed Taliban.

CIA coup against secular Mujib.

They will be back, unfortunately, if US gets a base.

Both India and China will join forces to bring BAL back.

I don't think Bangladesh can hold out for long

External debt and falling forex reserves, means one of the 2 ie
Either US or China will have to be chosen

There is ample evidence that the current U.K. far right riot was instigated by Hinduvta trolls loading fake videos.

Claiming the Southport child killer was Muslim.

Hinduvta troll are also loading fake videos claiming hamas committed rape. Which has been debunked by the London times.

Google anti Muslim slurs - see how many leads to India. It will be astonishing.

Virtually zero emanate from China!

In the U.K., prominent Muslim haters are Hindus or Indian non Muslims Priti Patel, Suela braver man et al

In US it is even more.

Tussi tan saale bache ho, tussi tan kuch kita hi ni ajj tak, what about the foreign funding given to radical Islamists in India to fund jihad? what about the Genocide happening right now in Bangladesh? mass conversions in Pakistan? your double standards are visible man, at least fear the one true god before supporting the genocide in his name across the world, God cannot be that cruel.
karma will turn the whole world on its head when Muslims all across the world and that too innocent muslims will be targeted.
If you lot don't stop now, This will not end well for all of you
