UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk on the recent Rohingya crisis

0

At the end of 2022, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk reflected on the past year and on “the story we’d like to write for our future”, hoping for “a world where everyone’s rights are respected” (OHCHR Statement, December 30, 2022). During his most recent statements, he also seized the opportunity to address the issues that are surrounding the Rohingya group in the South Asian region, especially during the last months. The Rohingya people are one the biggest stateless ethnic minorities in the world, and during the last 50 years they tried to escape violence in Myanmar through continuous outbreaks of exodus towards the rest of the Indian subcontinent (GHRD December Report).
