Bangladesh: PM urges global leaders to be more active in Rohingya repatriation

DHAKA, 08 July 2022, (TON): Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina urged international community to play more active role in Rohingya repatriation to their homeland, realising the huge burden of over one million displaced Myanmar nationals on Bangladesh under the fallout of Coronavirus and Russia-Ukraine war.

She said “Rohingyas are huge burden for us. All the countries are facing difficulties due to Coronavirus and Russia-Ukraine war. So, all should realise Bangladesh’s difficulties to tackle another burden of Rohingyas as it has also a population of 16.50 crore.”

The premier said “this while virtually inaugurating the newly constructed 8-storey building of the foreign ministry and conferring Bangabandhu Medal for Diplomatic Excellence, from her official Ganabhaban residence here.”

The ministry of foreign affairs organised the programme at the Hall Room of its newly constructed building in the city.
