US ‘deep state’ had no role in Bangladesh crisis, says Donald Trump

"There was no role for our deep state. This is something that the Prime Minister has been working on for a long time. Frankly, I've been reading about it, I will leave Bangladesh to the Prime Minister," Trump said.

President Trump's remarks came while responding to a query during a press meeting at the White House after bilateral talks with PM Narendra Modi.

Narendra Modi also expressed concerns over the ongoing issues in Bangladesh.

The issue of Bangladesh’s political instability, particularly following the collapse of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government in August last year, has been a point of tension between India and Bangladesh.
