New Delhi, 15th Feb. The Growing Scrutiny on USAID and George Soros
Recent revelations have shed light on an intricate web of political maneuvering, wherein USAID has reportedly funneled over $270 million into organizations linked to Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros. This financial nexus, now under increasing scrutiny, appears to have been leveraged to influence political landscapes and engineer destabilization across multiple nations, including Bharat and Bangladesh. Media reports indicate that these funds were used to fund regime change operations, orchestrate civil unrest, and advance a larger agenda of political reconfiguration under the guise of democratic activism.
The unearthing of these financial transactions comes at a time when the role of USAID as a tool of the US deep state is being widely debated. Notably, political commentators, including former US official Mike Benz and journalist Tucker Carlson, have been vocal about the pattern of Washington’s clandestine funding of foreign interventions.

Even billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has thrown his weight behind these concerns, amplifying the debate around the deep state’s long-standing involvement in global geopolitics.
The Soros-USAID Connection: A Strategy for Global Interference
The connection between Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) and USAID is not new. In fact, the latter has awarded more than $270 million to organizations affiliated with Soros over the last fifteen years. One such entity, the East-West Management Institute, collaborated closely with OSF while receiving USAID grants. The core objective behind these financial inflows has been clear—to destabilize governments that do not align with the larger geopolitical agenda of the US establishment.
Bharat has frequently been at the receiving end of such interventions. The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has repeatedly accused Soros of backing opposition groups and funding critics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. BJP leaders have maintained that Soros’ initiatives are aimed at undermining the Bharatiya government, inciting unrest, and interfering in national politics.
The party also drew attention to an investigative report by French media outlet Mediapart, which exposed a “dangerous triangle” involving Soros, US-based agencies, and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OCCRP). This collaboration allegedly sought to weaken Bharat’s economic and social stability by orchestrating a network of dissent and misinformation campaigns.
USAID’s Role in Bangladesh’s Political Upheaval
The role of USAID in Bangladesh’s internal affairs has raised further alarm. Reports suggest that US taxpayers’ money has been channeled into programs designed to destabilize the country’s political order. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) has emerged as a key player in defending USAID’s activities, particularly in programs linked to Bangladesh. The agency has been accused of funding initiatives such as transgender dance festivals and rap music projects, allegedly aimed at reshaping cultural narratives and indirectly influencing political outcomes.
At the heart of these interventions lies a larger strategic interest—Washington’s long-standing pursuit of an airbase in Bangladesh. As geopolitical tensions in the Indo-Pacific intensify, securing a military foothold in the region has become crucial for the US. Analysts argue that the political instability fostered by USAID-backed programs is a prelude to furthering American strategic ambitions in the region.
The Deep State’s Global Footprints
The revelations surrounding Soros’ financial activities are not isolated incidents. His role in influencing political dynamics has been well-documented across multiple nations. In Hungary, his aggressive push to influence policies and support mass migration led to the enactment of the “Stop Soros” law, aimed at curbing foreign interference in domestic affairs. Similarly, in Russia, the OSF was banned outright, with authorities labeling its activities as a direct threat to national security.
Soros’ name has also surfaced in connection with Ukraine, Syria, Pakistan, Iran, and Sri Lanka, where similar financial and strategic patterns have been observed. His global reach, often executed through a network of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and think tanks, has positioned him as one of the most controversial figures in international politics.
The Congress-Soros Nexus: A Long-Standing Relationship
The links between Soros and Bharat’s Congress party have come under renewed scrutiny, particularly in the wake of revelations about Sonia Gandhi’s Forum of the Democratic Leaders in the Asia Pacific (FDL-AP) Foundation. This organization, co-chaired by Gandhi, has reportedly received substantial funds from Soros, raising questions about external influences on Bharatiya political discourse.
The FDL-AP’s stance on Kashmir has been particularly contentious, with reports suggesting that it has portrayed the region as a separate entity. This aligns with broader international narratives that seek to challenge Bharat’s sovereignty over Kashmir, a position that has often found support among US-backed agencies.
Prime Minister Modi’s Stand Against Foreign Conspiracies
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not shied away from calling out foreign conspiracies against Bharat. Addressing a public gathering on October 8th, he warned that certain international forces were actively conspiring to undermine Bharat’s democracy and economy. He accused the Congress party and its allies of being complicit in this game, highlighting the increasing alignment between opposition parties and foreign-funded agencies.
“For some time now, many conspiracies have been hatched against Bharat. Many conspiracies are being hatched to weaken Bharat’s democracy and social fabric. International conspiracies are being hatched. National parties like Congress and their allies are involved in this game,” Modi declared.
Conclusion: A Call for Greater Vigilance
The latest revelations surrounding USAID’s funding of Soros-affiliated organizations serve as a stark reminder of the deep state’s continued efforts to manipulate global politics. As more information comes to light, the patterns of financial flow, political influence, and strategic destabilization become increasingly apparent.
For Bharat and Bangladesh, the need for vigilance has never been greater. With Washington’s geopolitical interests clashing with the region’s sovereignty, it is imperative that policymakers, security agencies, and the general public remain alert to external influences. While the deep state’s tactics may evolve, recognizing and countering these subversive operations will be key to safeguarding national interests in the years to come.
