Exploring the Bangladesh Turmoil and Its Effects

On August 5, Bangladesh witnessed the sudden fall of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's 15-year rule amid widespread protests and civil unrest, marking a dramatic shift in the country's political landscape and sending shockwaves through South Asia.


How did economic grievances and student-led protests catalyze this unexpected turn of events? What role are disinformation campaigns playing in shaping perceptions of the crisis, particularly regarding religious tensions? And how will major powers like India, China, and the US respond to the changing dynamics in Bangladesh?


On August 16, as the situation was unfolding, Wikistrat CEO Oren Kesler explored these critical questions in a special webinar featuring Michael Kugelman, Director of the South Asia Institute at the Wilson Center.
