Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen on Sunday urged the international community, including the United Kingdom(UK), to play more decisive role in ensuring voluntary, safe and sustainable repatriation of forcibly displaced Rohingyas to their homeland in Myanmar at an early date.

He made the urge when visiting UK’s Minister of State (Indo-Pacific) at the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) Anne-Marie Trevelyan called on him at foreign ministry here, a press release said. 

During the meeting, the foreign minister lauded the UK’s role in multilateral fora, particularly at the UN Security Council on Rohingya issue. 

Momen also briefed the British Minister of State on the facilities created in Bhasan Char for the Rohingyas.

Both sides also discussed various other bilateral and international issues of mutual interest and concerns, including bilateral trade and investment, cooperation on climate change and war in Ukraine.
