Any actual reliable sources or just rumours and innuendo cherry-picked from propagandist sources?
Iām not sure if you read the actual article you posted or just Googled to look for stuff to support your pre-existing biases.

You can get some more context from this article.
The point is that thereās been budget which has been allocated by the US to enable activities in Bangladesh.
Thats not done.
There are so many articles there.
Iāll stop criticism of US when they donāt do regime changes and back off from interference in other countries.
Is that a good way to put it ?
I donāt see how this shows the dark hand of the evil US?
No, because youāll literally see anything as their evil hand controlling the world at this point.
Maybe try reading that article from The Sunday Guardian Live you posted? Nothing in that article supports the claim in the headline at all, and itās all standard benign democracy education outreach activities. No insidious plotting, and much of the article just quotes assessments in reports that the supposed evil organisation at the heart of this wrote that were public to begin with, because their goals and activites were always transparent.
I suppose this shows the insidious plot to overthrow the Bangladeshi government, reaching out to both main partiesā¦
So youāre the sort who believes that US absolutely does no interference with foreign governments.
Keep up the delusion then.
Not believing that the spectre looms over every single regime change in the world does not equate to not believing that they have not, cannot, do not, and will not engage in interference.
Itās funny how you call me deluded when in every single place youāve posted this bullshit on these forums thus far, youāve been called out on it and pointed out how factually wrong you are, but you keep persisting with it.
Dr. Yunus has a rather dark past. In 2008, he tried to form a party with the renegades of the Big Two parties, with the explicit backing from the military.
The reason why Hasina ensured that he wonāt have a momentās of peace during her 16-year rule.

Iām sorry, I donāt understand a single bit of that at all.
Correct me if Iām wrong, but hasnāt Bangladesh precisely had a problem with the fact that politics was monopolised by the Big Two? I get how the military backing is a problem, but someone who tried to start a new party to break free from the corruption and authoritarianism from two dominant authoritarian parties doesnāt sound like a dark past to me, it sounds like someone who would be welcomed as a hero in many of these countries, who wish they had someone like that in their own countries, that are supposedly the evil puppeteers.
Just look at the USA. How many people do you hear would rather not vote Democrat or Republican if they had the choice?
Being persecuted by a corrupt autocrat isnāt the bad thing you seem to imply that it is hereā¦

Sorry for my probably naivety, but I have a hard time to understand this too. What has he done so wrong? Iād like to know more about that, especially as he enjoys quite a positive image around here, with his concept of micro-credits. Didnāt he help a lot of people to get out of misery? Hasnāt his concept also had success elsewhere since?
As @redalways says, wouldnāt being persecuted by a ruthless autocrat rather add credit to someone, once that autocrat has fallen?
If I understand @Iftikharās post correctly, Yunus is the one that had the military backing when he started the 3rd party, so would have probably been seen as an attempted military coup

@redalways @Hope.in.your.heart What he attempted was to go to power with the backing of the military by rebranding some of old scums.
There was a public appeal to him for forming a new party with fresh bloods, but he ignored that. Taking some of the scums into a new party was a hypothetical approach to solve the issues with the big two parties.

See, I tried to do some research around that, but I donāt see any evidence of such. Care to share some sources?
I lived through those days 
. Try some local newspapers in 2007.

Fairly epic political development in Canada yesterday - Finance Minister Freedland was due to give a āfinancial updateā, basically a refresh on the Budget, but had been told by Trudeau on Friday that she was being moved out of Finance. That is apparently due to some policy disagreements.
So she quit first thing Monday morning. The first two Cabinet members Trudeau tapped to deliver the update refused.
