After winning the 2024 U.S. elections, Donald Trump is starting to build his cabinet.

Michael Kugleman highlights country's growing political tensions

Michael Kugelman, the Director of the South Asia Institute at Wilson Center in an interview, shared his concern on rising tension in Bangladesh.  He also shared his worries regarding increasing instability in Bangladesh.
