In a recent meeting between Burmese and Bangladeshi officials, concerns were raised over the delay in repatriating Rohingya refugees due to cease-fire violations in Myanmar. The Bangladeshi Foreign Affairs Adviser highlighted the influx of over 40,000 Myanmar nationals seeking refuge in Bangladesh. Additionally, Bangladesh proposed the creation of a UN-guaranteed “safe zone” in Myanmar to address the ongoing humanitarian crisis. Ethnic armed groups in Myanmar have been engaged in fighting the junta regime since October, leading to a volatile situation in the country. This meeting underscored the importance of regional stability and the need for coordinated efforts to ensure the safe return and protection of displaced Rohingya populations. The proposal for a safe zone aims to provide a secure environment for those affected by the conflict in Myanmar’s Rakhine state. The discussion emphasized the urgency of addressing the crisis to prevent further displacement and suffering among vulnerable communities.
