UNB, Dhaka :
Instead of taking back Rohingyas, Myanmar now remains engaged in “persistent campaign” to mislead the international community to avoid its obligations for the “sustained repatriation” and reintegration of the forcibly displaced Rohingya in safety and dignity, says Bangladesh.
Dhaka on Wednesday rejected the “baseless accusation, falsification, and misrepresentation of facts” and urged Nay Pyi Taw to stop concocted campaign and concentrate on the fulfillment of its obligations.
“Myanmar must act decisively to address the real causes that are preventing the displaced Rohingya from going back voluntarily,” said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ External Publicity Wing. Bangladesh said it is a “matter of utter dismay” to witness such tenacious campaign with fabricated information, misrepresentation of facts, unsubstantiated claims and undue accusations on the part of Myanmar to mislead the international community.
Bangladesh is now hosting over 1.1 million Rohingyas who have fled their homeland in Rakhine State of Myanmar after being persecuted by their own state. Myanmar did not take back a single Rohingya from Bangladesh over the last two years.
Two repatriation attempts went unsuccessful as Myanmar “failed to remove trust deficit” among Rohingyas and “lack of conducive environment” in Rakhine State for their return.
Bangladesh said Myanmar should seriously consider a comprehensive participation of the international community in creating conducive environment for return as well as in the monitoring of repatriation and reintegration process. “Myanmar should also cooperate with international community to eliminate the culture of impunity for the sake of a durable solution to the protracted problem,” the Foreign Ministry said.
