\n

The UN chief on Sunday urged Myanmar to ensure the “safe” return of Rohingya Muslim refugees driven out by army operations, a plea made in front of Aung San Suu Kyi more than two years since her country cracked down on the Muslim minority.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a summit of Southeast Asian leaders in Bangkok — with Myanmar’s de facto head Suu Kyi in the room — Antonio Guterres said he remains “deeply concerned” about the plight of the Rohingya.<\/p>\n

Violence in Rakhine state in 2017 forced more than 740,000 Rohingya to flee, most seeking refuge in overcrowded camps in neighboring Bangladesh, in what UN investigators say amounted to genocide.<\/p>\n

Myanmar does not recognize the Rohingya as citizens.<\/p>\n

The country says it welcomes back those who agree to a bureaucratic status below full citizenship, and if they agree to live under tight guard after their villages were incinerated.<\/p>\n

Guterres said Myanmar is responsible to “ensure a conducive environment for the safe, voluntary, dignified and sustainable repatriation of refugees”.<\/p>\n

Suu Kyi sat in the room expressionless as Guterres spoke, AFP reported.<\/p>\n

Only a few hundred Rohingya have returned to Myanmar so far, with many fearing further persecution in the Buddhist-majority country.<\/p>\n

The secretary-general also called on Myanmar “to ensure humanitarian actors have full and unfettered access to areas of return”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
