Foreign Adviser Md. Touhid Hossain today expressed deep concern over the recent influx of more than 40,000 Rohnigyas in Bangladesh fleeing conflict in Myanmar’s bordering states.
He raised the concern while Myanmar Ambassador to Bangladesh U Kyaw Soe Moe paid a maiden call on him at the foreign ministry here, an official press release said.
During the talks, the foreign adviser emphasized the urgency of a safe and sustainable repatriation process for the displaced Rohingya population, highlighting the importance of peace and stability in Myanmar.
“Regional stability is crucial for both the nations,” he said, calling for increased efforts to address the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
Ambassador Moe acknowledged the challenges posed by the ongoing conflict in Myanmar, explaining that repatriation efforts have been delayed due to a ceasefire breakdown by the Arakan Army in November 2023.
