Persecution on Rohingyas ‘atrocities of the millennium’

Says Brazilian envoy

Brazilian Ambassador in Dhaka Joao Tabajara de Oliveira Junior has described the persecution of Rohingya ethnic minority by Myanmar security forces as 'atrocities of the millennium', reports UNB. "This is something difficult to understand. This is unthinkable. Rohingya persecution is atrocities of the millennium," he said at a view-exchange meeting at the Daily Sun office on yesterday. The diplomat said although the Rohingya displaced people are leading safe and better life in camps in Cox's Bazar, situation may deteriorate for want of relief and other supplies.

"More than 6,000 Rohingya children in Cox's Bazar are reportedly orphans. They are innocent. Yet they are exposed to many atrocities because of identity," he said. Replying to a query, he said, Brazil is shocked and concerned over Rohingya crisis and it would like to work with Bangladesh and other countries to resolve the crisis.

The meeting was organised during Joao Tabajara's visit to the office of the English daily at the East West Media Group Limited (EWMGL) complex in Bashundhara Residential Area. Daily Sun acting Editor Enamul Hoque Chowdhury presided over it,said a press release.
