Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan reaffirmed Ankara’s commitment to keeping the Rohingya crisis on the international agenda and pledged continued support for displaced Muslims during talks with Bangladeshi Foreign Minister Khalilur Rahman in Dhaka on Friday.
Speaking at a joint news conference following their meeting, Fidan said Türkiye was working closely with neighboring countries and international organizations to achieve a “permanent and just solution” to the Rohingya issue.
“We are acting in solidarity and coordination with relevant neighboring countries and organizations to find a lasting and fair solution to the Rohingya issue,” Fidan noted.
“As Türkiye, we are making intensive efforts to keep this crisis on the agenda of the international community.”
More than 1 million Rohingya refugees, most of whom fled violence and persecution in neighboring Myanmar, are currently living in camps in Bangladesh, primarily in the southeastern district of Cox’s Bazar.
