Delegates from Myanmar's government have visited Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh as part of a repatriation scheme. It's the second such visit in the past three months. Both countries want to send more than 1,000 Rohingya to Myanmar. Some refugees say they've been pressured into signing repatriation documents. About a million fled Myanmar in 2017 after a military crackdown. Al Jazeera's Tanvir Chowdhury spoke to Rohingya refugees in Cox's Bazar, where few trust the repatriation plan. And live to talk with us is Nay San Lwin, a Burmese human rights activist and co-founder of the Free Rohingya coalition.

It has been over five years since the Myanmar military has launched its genocidal campaign against the Rohingya in Rakhine State that drove out more than 800,000 Rohingya to the Bangladesh border. The same military has committed war crimes and crimes against humanity against other ethnic and religious minorities including mass killings, rape and gang rape, torture, forced displacement, arbitrary arrests and detention, and burning of villages to ashes. They continue to enjoy blanket impunity fueled by international community’s apathy and inability to hold them accountable.
