DHAKA, Jan 24 (Asia Free Press): Foreign Minister of Bangladesh Dr AK Abdul Momen, in a meeting with British Parliamentarians Thomas Patrick Hunt and Paul Bristow at Foreign Services Academy in Dhaka, has urged the UK government and British parliament to continue their efforts in early repatriation of forcibly displaced Rohingya to their motherland Myanmar from Bangladesh, the state-run media reported.

They reaffirmed their solidarity with the Rohingya and assured them of remaining seized with their legitimate demands for citizenship, security and freedom of movement in Myanmar.

The UK MPs noted that the international community had a responsibility to stand by this large group of people, which the government and people of Bangladesh generously supported.
