DHAKA, 02 December 2020, (TON): European Union wants united role of international community for sustainable solution to the Rohingya crisis while saying that not all are doing equally on their part.
EU Ambassador to Bangladesh Rensje Teerink said EU has been doing its part at the UN Security Council, Human Rights Council and even at the OIC level to create pressure on Myanmar.
Besides, EU also imposed targeted sanctions on some high-ranking military officials of Myanmar.
While addressing to Diplomatic Correspondents Association of Bangladesh Teerink said "not all are working equally, noting that some of the regional countries are not doing enough.”
She also spoke about the EU- Bangladesh relations including on trade and migration.
For decades, Rohingya, an ethnic Muslim minority group, in Myanmar, has faced institutionalized discrimination, such as exclusionary citizenship laws. Still, resentment of the minority group has run deep for generations.
