Turkey's minister of foreign affairs has been welcomed in Myanmar's Rakhine State, where he spoke of Turkey's support for its Muslim population before hosting a dinner to break the day's fast.
After traveling from capital Nay Pyi Taw to the Rakhine capital of Sittwe, Mevlut Cavusoglu listened to the problems faced by those who lived there, and talked reconciliation late Monday.
Since 2012, Rakhine -- home to more than one million Rohingya Muslims (described by the United Nations as the world's most persecuted minority group) -- has been troubled by communal violence, with Rohingya and other ethnicities and religious groups left reliant on aid in internally displaced person camps.
