Addressing the Rohingya Crisis in Bangladesh

Bangladesh currently hosts around 1.1 million Rohingya Muslim Minorities from Myanmar. The Rohingya people have faced decades of systematic discrimination, statelessness, and targeted violence in Rakhine State, Myanmar. Such persecution forced them to come to Bangladesh for many years, particularly in August 2017.

In this episode, H. E. Ambassador Ms. Rabab Fatima, Permanent Representative of Bangladesh to the United Nations in New York is interviewed by our Staff Editor, Md. Hasan Abdullah Towhid about the Rohingya crisis in Bangladesh.

The ongoing case against Myanmar at ICJ and UNGA & UNSC resolutions; and deliberations of the International community for a sustainable solution of Rohingya crisis are also discussed.
