Zeid Al-Hussein: Rohingya and Islamic Countries

zeid al-hussein: He didn't identify any of the nations, though many spoke out about the plight of more than 420,000 Rohingya Muslims who have fled from Myanmar to Bangladesh since Aug. 25, when Rohingya insurgent attacks on security forces prompted a military crackdown and reprisals by majority Buddhists, according to Metro News. Among those who accused Myanmar of trying to rid itself of Rohingya were Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, U.N. human rights chief Zeid Ra'ad al-Hussein, and a number of Islamic countries, including the United Arab Emirates. Hau Do Suan used his right of reply at the end of the six-day gathering of world leaders at the General Assembly to respond to what he called irresponsible remarks and unsubstantiated allegations repeated by countries in their speeches to the 193-member world body. Suan denied those claims. There is no genocide, he said. There is no ethnic cleansing. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
