Nay Pyi Taw must act decisively to address real causes, Dhaka says rejecting baseless accusation

Description: 

"Bangladesh has reacted sharply on Myanmar's persistent campaign to mislead the international community with fabricated information, misrepresentation of facts, unsubstantiated claims and undue accusations. Dhaka made it clear that Nay Pyi Taw is doing so to avoid its obligations for the sustained repatriation and reintegration of the forcibly displaced Rohingya in safety and dignity, reports UNB. 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 on Wednesday. It is a matter of utter dismay to witness the persistent campaign on the part of the Government of Myanmar to mislead the international community, it added. Bangladesh recently noticed yet another round of such attempts by Myanmar Union Minister for International Cooperation U Kyaw Tin. He resorted to misrepresentation of the whole issue as well as laying unjustified blames on Bangladesh in his effort to refute the well-founded remarks by Bangladesh Foreign Minister on Rohingya crisis at the Preparatory Ministerial Meeting of the 18th Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement on October 23 in Baku, Azerbaijan..."
