US Ambassador to Bangladesh Brent T Christensen met Indian High Commissioner Dinesh Trivedi at the Indian High Commission today (12 November).
A source at the US Embassy confirmed the meeting to UNB but said it was not known what the two diplomats discussed. “I can only tell you that the meeting took place in the morning.”
Ambassador Christensen arrived in Dhaka on 12 January this year, while High Commissioner Dinesh Trivedi arrived in June this year.
The meeting comes against the background of a charged political atmosphere, as Dhaka seeks the extradition of deposed former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, who has been residing in India since 5 August 2024.
Meanwhile, Hasina herself has pledged to return to the country in December.
