US rejects involvement in removing Hasina from power

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has said that The United States has had no involvement in removing former prime minister Sheikh Hasina from power.
"Any — any reports or rumors that the United States government was involved in these — in these events is simply, simply false. That is not true," the press secretary said replying to a question.
"This is a choice for and by the Bangladeshi people. We believe that the Bangladeshi people should determine the future of the Bangladeshi government, and that where we stand. Any allegations, certainly, we will continue to say, and I have said here, is simply not true."
Sheikh Hasina resigned on August 5 amidst protests and fled to India.
