The White House has denied any involvement in the ousting of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who recently resigned and left the country. Allegations of U.S. interference have been dismissed as "simply false" by White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre.
Reports claiming U.S. involvement were refuted, with Hasina's son also denying that she made any statements accusing the U.S. of playing a role in her removal.
An interim government, led by Nobel Peace laureate Muhammad Yunus, has been sworn in with the aim of holding elections in Bangladesh.
Violence erupted in Bangladesh following student protests against government job quotas, leading to a campaign to oust Hasina, who won a disputed fourth term in January.
Hasina has left Bangladesh for New Delhi after ruling for 15 years.
