Durable solutions to the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar
United Nations
21 June 2023
Panel discussion on durable solutions to the Rohingya crisis and to end human rights violations and abuses against Rohingya Muslims and other minorities in Myanmar
Statement by Nada Al-Nashif, UN Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights
Mr President,
Distinguished Panelists,
Excellencies,
Rohingya Muslims and other minorities in Myanmar have endured decades of persecution and systematic discrimination. Today, eleven years after the 2012 violence in Rakhine State, and six years after the 2017 military operations that killed thousands and displaced hundreds of thousands of Rohingya, more than one million languish in refugee camps in Bangladesh. An estimated 600,000 remain in Myanmar where they continue to be deprived of their basic rights.

UN expert exposes $1 billion “death trade” to Myanmar military
NEW YORK / GENEVA (17 May 2023) – The Myanmar military has imported at least $1 billion USD in arms and raw materials to manufacture weapons since the coup in February 2021, according to a new report today by the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Myanmar, Tom Andrews.
UN Member States are enabling this trade either through outright complicity, lax enforcement of existing bans, and easily circumvented sanctions, according to the report.
“Despite overwhelming evidence of the Myanmar military’s atrocity crimes against the people of Myanmar, the generals continue to have access to advanced weapons systems, spare parts for fighter jets, raw materials and manufacturing equipment for domestic weapons production,” Andrews said. “Those providing these weapons are able to avoid sanctions by using front companies and creating new ones while counting on lax enforcement.

UN must act and investigate its agencies involvement in Rohingya refugees repatriation pilot project
Progressive Voice
April 3rd, 2023
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.
