The UN Secretary-General's concerns about the withdrawal of Rohingya
United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has expressed concern over the signing of an agreement between Myanmar and Bangladesh regarding the withdrawal of Rohingya. Worldwide Rohingya organizations have expressed concern in a joint statement.
According to a British daily Guardian report on Thursday, the United Nations Secretary-General believes that the agreement signed in Myanmar's capital, Naypyidaw, needs to be clarified that Rohingyas can return to their villages or stay in their camps.
Gutures said at a press conference in the United Nations headquarters in New York, "The worst thing is to get these people from camps in Bangladesh to Myanmar camp."
Since the start of new army operations on August 25, more than six and a half million Rohingyas have fled to Bangladesh so far. Bangladesh made a deal with Myanmar on Tuesday to make them return home.
In the continuation of the agreement signed between the two countries in November, the 'Physical Arrangement' was finalized on Tuesday, so that Rohingyas, who have taken refuge in Bangladesh, have been asked to return to Myanmar for two years from the time they agreed to refund.
On the day of this agreement, the protesting human rights group Amnesty International issued a statement. James Gomes, director of the Southeast Asia and the Pacific Ocean Regional Director, said in the statement that "the steps taken at an early time", such as creating a concern, is that the Rohingya refugees are still suspected of returning to Myanmar due to rape, murder and torture.
He said that the Rohingyas will not be safe or honorable until the country's fundamental changes, including accountability for the crimes against humanity and the crimes committed against them, stop the Rohingyas.
Paul Ronalds, chief executive officer of Save the Children, said: "If the Rohingyas want to return to Myanmar, their security will be ensured there, and the persecution and violence that have taken place in decades after them will not be there." Very hard to do. "
In any agreement regarding the repatriation of Rohingyas, there should be an opportunity to enter citizenship, freedom of movement and employment as a 'minimum condition'.
According to the joint statement of Rohingya organizations, the refugees are reluctant to return home.
"But they do not want to go because they have not yet created a suitable environment for safe and voluntary repatriation with dignity and respect.
"We are deeply concerned about the agreement signed between Myanmar and Bangladesh to send Rohingya back to Rohingya, which is a signatory to the Rohingya organizations around the world, in the face of violence in Myanmar on November 23, and returning to 6,70,000 Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh."
In the face of violence in Arakan, the Rohingyas are still coming to Bangladesh, the statement said that there has been no change in the attitude of Myanmar government and the country's military towards Rohingya.
The signatory organizations are - Arakan Rohingya National Organization (ARNO), Burmese Rohingya Organization UK (BRUU), British Rohingya Community in UK, Burmese Rohingya Community in Denmark, Burmese Rohingya Association Japan (BRAG), Rohingya Advocacy Network in Japan, Burmese Rohingya Community Australia (BRCA), Burmese Rohingya Association Queensland-Australia (BRAAQ), Canadian Burmese Rohingya Organization, European Rohingya Council (ERC), Myanmar Ethnic Rohingya Human Rights Organization in Malaysia (MERHROM), Rohingya American Society, Rohingya Arakanese Refugee Committee, Rohingya Community In Germany, Rohingya Community Switzerland, Rohingya Community in Finland, Ro Hinga Community in Italy, Rohingya Community in Sweden, Rohingya Organization Norway, Rohingya Society Malaysia (RSM) and Rohingya Society Netherlands.
