Itinerary: Rohingya Brothers

itinerary: Hundreds of thousands of Rohingya have fled to Bangladesh in what the United Nations has called textbook ethnic cleansing, according to CTV. The itinerary makes no mention of a papal meeting with Rohingya in either country. The Vatican on Tuesday released the itinerary for the Nov. 26-Dec. 2 trip, which has taken on greater visibility since Myanmar security forces responded to Rohingya militant attacks with a broad crackdown in August. Francis, however, is likely to at least refer to their plight since he has already denounced the persecution of our Rohingya brothers on several occasions from the Vatican. Francis' first speech in Myanmar is likely to refer to the issue when he addresses Myanmar's top civilian leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, government officials and Myanmar's diplomatic corps in the political capital, Nay Pyi Taw, on Nov. 28, his first full day of activities in the country. The trip motto is peace, harmony and love among people of different faiths. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
