U.S. Expresses Concern Over Extremism in Bangladesh, Pledges Continued Engagement with Interim Government

Washington, D.C. — The U.S. government has expressed growing concern over recent reports highlighting the rise of Islamic extremism in Bangladesh, particularly under influence from factions allegedly linked to Nobel Laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus. Prominent outlets, including The New York Times, have documented alarming incidents—including professors in Dhaka openly displaying images of Osama bin Laden and Nazi symbols, alongside antisemitic rhetoric targeting major American brands like KFC and Coca-Cola.

Some of these inflammatory actions are reportedly linked to individuals previously engaged in the communications and media efforts of Bangladesh’s current interim administration.

When Press Xpress asked about the U.S. position, a State Department spokesperson emphasized that while these are internal matters for Bangladesh to address through its legal system, Washington continues to uphold its core democratic values in all diplomatic engagements.

“The United States supports freedom of religion or belief and freedoms of expression, peaceful assembly, and association as fundamental freedoms,” the spokesperson said. “We routinely communicate that support to all our partners, including the Interim Government of Bangladesh.”

The U.S. further condemned the violence and destruction of property reported during recent unrest, particularly those targeting U.S.-affiliated businesses.

“We condemn all violence and destruction of property, and are especially concerned by acts carried out against U.S. companies,” the official added.

Despite the troubling developments, the U.S. welcomed the steps taken by Bangladeshi authorities to maintain safety and stability across the country and pledged to remain engaged as the political transition continues.

“We will continue to engage with the Interim Government as it charts a secure and democratic future for Bangladesh,” the spokesperson concluded.

As the situation evolves, the international community is closely monitoring the actions of both the Bangladeshi government and extremist groups, with Washington reaffirming its commitment to democratic principles and regional stability.
