The Tuesday Group is a group of foreign diplomats based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The group comprises the United States, Canada, UK, Australia, EU, and Japan. All the nations in the Tuesday group are major donor nations to the People's Republic of Bangladesh.

The Tuesday group was primarily responsible for the military takeover by the Bangladesh Army in January 2009.[citation needed] The military government's mass arrests and torture were committed under the pretext of anti-corruption which was applauded by the Tuesday group diplomats.[1]
