Why is America's 'coup specialist' on a visit to India? He was accused of toppling the Imran Khan and Sheikh Hasina government.

Senior US official Donald Lu is on a visit to India. Lu is the same US official whose name cropped up in the overthrow of the Imran government in Pakistan and the coup of the Sheikh Hasina government in Bangladesh. Lu is serving as the Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia in the US State Department.

He also participated in the India Idea Summit organized by the US-India Business Council on Wednesday. Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri and many Indian officials also participated in this summit. The purpose of his visit to India is to strengthen the economic partnership between the two countries.

After he visits India, Lu will be in Bangladesh on 14 and 15 September, where he will participate in an economic dialogue with the interim government, which is being organized by the US Treasury Department. During this, he may also meet interim government chief Mohammad Yunus. According to the US State Department, its objective will be economic growth, financial stability, and development of Bangladesh.

Donald Lu is considered a coup specialist.

In the last few years, the name of this senior US official has been coming up in connection with the political upheaval in India's neighboring countries. Along with the coup of Sheikh Hasina's government in August, his name also came up when Imran Khan's government fell in Pakistan. Then Imran Khan also blamed the US for toppling the government. It is believed that the closeness of Imran Khan's government with China and Russia was troubling the US.

Imran Khan had accused America.

Imran Khan had openly accused America of using Pakistan many times. Imran Khan had also blamed America for the country's economic crisis. Not only this, he said that America is trying to influence Pakistan's foreign policy and internal politics to fulfill its interests.

The name came up in the coup of the Sheikh Hasina government.

At the same time, former Bangladesh Prime Minister and Awami League leader Sheikh Hasina also blamed America for the coup. Earlier in May 2024, Sheikh Hasina had also claimed that a white-skinned foreigner had offered her to win the elections easily, in return he wanted to build a military base in Bangladesh. According to Sheikh Hasina, if she had allowed the construction of a military base on Bangladesh's St. Martin Island, her government would have remained.

According to media reports, Donald Lu visited Bangladesh in May 2024. A few months after his return from Bangladesh, there was such a storm of student movement in Bangladesh that it toppled the government of Sheikh Hasina. As a result, Sheikh Hasina had to resign from the post of Prime Minister and come to India.

Lu will visit Bangladesh for the first time since the coup.

Now after the ouster of Sheikh Hasina's government, he will be on a visit to Bangladesh once again, although he is the Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia in the US State Department, so he keeps visiting this region and meeting officials. But after the accusation of the coup in Bangladesh, many people's eyes are fixed on his visit.
