Two Deputy Assistant Secretaries from the U.S. State Department are scheduled to arrive in Dhaka early Wednesday for a three-day official visit. This marks the first visit of a Trump-era U.S. delegation to Bangladesh and will cover a wide range of issues including democratic reforms, the Rohingya crisis, U.S. tariffs, and regional geopolitics involving Myanmar. Nicole Chulick, Deputy Assistant Secretary for South and Central Asia, is expected to meet top officials of the interim government to discuss U.S. support for Bangladesh’s democratic transition. She may also meet with leaders from BNP, Jamaat-e-Islami, other political parties, and civil society representatives. The evolving situation in Myanmar is seen as a significant factor in Washington’s Indo-Pacific strategy, making this visit particularly important.
