The visiting Rakhine commission yesterday stressed the need for granting citizenship to Rakhine Muslims and ensuring their dignity to find a lasting solution to the current crisis.
“Yes, this is the key to have a better situation there,” said commission delegation leader Ghassan Salame.
He was talking to reporters after attending a discussion meeting in the capital's Bangladesh Institute of International and Strategic Studies (BIISS).
Salame, a former Lebanese minister for cultural affairs and also a former special adviser to the UN secretary-general, said he does not think that only religious elements compelled Rohingyas to flee their motherland.
“This is not a war of religion. There are other issues,” he added. (Courtesy of thedailystar.net)
