DHAKA, Oct 18, 2023 (BSS) - Foreign Minister Dr. AK Abdul Momen has said 
safe, voluntary and sustainable repatriation is the only solution of the 
Rohingya crisis. 

He made the remarks while delivering the key note speech at the "High Level 
meeting on Rohingya Refugees" arranged by United Nations High Commissioner 
for Refugees (UNHCR) in Bangkok, Thailand on Tuesday, a foreign ministry 
press release said here today.
 
Dr. Momen urged for international community's meaningful engagement in 
Rakhine State to improve the situation there and to boost humanitarian 
support for the Rohingyas staying in Bangladesh. 

The ongoing learning in Myanmar Curriculum and portable skill development 
activities for Rohingyas in Cox's Bazar and Bhasan Char should complement the 
repatriation initiatives, he said.

During the event, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi called 
on Bangladesh Foreign Minister.
 
Dr Momen thanked UNHCR for its continued humanitarian support for the 
Rohingyas and sought cooperation to realize the right and expectation of the 
forcefully displaced people to return to Myanmar.

Noting that voluntary repatriation as the solution of the Rohingya crisis, 
Grandi assured to continue efforts to achieve that objective.
