Bangladesh is "outraged" to
witness Myamar's another "blatant demonstration of falsehood and
fabrication of facts" in the ongoing UN General Assembly (UNGA), and
shared the situation on the ground before the international community.
"Bangladesh
strongly rejects baseless accusations and falsification and
misrepresentation of facts that Myanmar made in the UNGA," a senior
official in Dhaka told UNB conveying what Bangladesh exactly responded
to Myanmar's propaganda.
Bangladesh, through the UN, has urged
the Myanmar government to abandon its policy of lies and propaganda and
demonstrate genuine political will to take back their own nationals with
safety, security and dignity, said the official, Dhaka tribune
reported.
Myanmar at the UNGA claimed that Bangladesh is
harbouring terrorists in Cox's Bazar Rohingya camps but it rejected such
"baseless" allegations.
Bangladesh, under the leadership of
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, maintains a zero-tolerance policy to
terrorism, terrorists financing and other drivers of terrorism, said
another official.
"We don't allow our territory to be used by any
terrorist. Myanmar needs to look at its own mirror," the official said,
mentioning that this is what Bangladesh's reply to Myanmar during the
general debate at the UNGA.
Bangladesh also pointed out
"concocted and misleading" statement of Myanmar on the development in
Rakhine State, particularly in the repatriation process.
Myanmar's
Minister Kyaw Tint Swe, in his speech at the UNGA, on Tuesday said
bilateral cooperation is the only way to effectively resolve the
repatriation issue between Bangladesh and Myanmar.
Bangladesh
strongly disagreed on such a notion reminding Myanmar that the Rohingya
issue is not a bilateral one but it is Myanmar's internal problem.
Bangladesh
highlighted Myanmar's track record of inhumane treatment of ethnic
minorities, including Rohingyas, saying it is nothing new for Myanmar.
Bangladesh
said it is Myanmar's State policy of deliberate exclusion and
persecution on their own people that instigated insurgency and turned
Myanmar into the breeding ground of organized crimes.
Bangladesh
took the floor to reply Myanmar's "propaganda" and said a deadly
conflict is going on in Rakhine State ignoring the UN call for ceasefire
simply to implement Myanmar's "genocidal campaign" against its own
people, said the official.
On January 16, 2018, Bangladesh and
Myanmar signed a document on "Physical Arrangement", which was supposed
to facilitate the return of Rohingyas to their homeland.
