The United Nations has adopted a resolution tabled by the Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC) and the European Union (EU) that calls for urgent resolution of the Rohingya crisis.
The resolution calls for specific action on the part of Myanmar to address the root cause of the Rohingya crisis including granting them citizenship rights and ensuring safe and sustainable return to their homes.
The resolution further expressed appreciation for the Bangladesh government for its humanitarian act of sheltering the displaced Rohingyas.
