Mentioning that hosting over 1.1 million Rohingyas is a big burden for Bangladesh, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said it wants to resolve the Rohingya crisis through discussions with Myanmar.

Visiting Swiss President Alain Berset yesterday said the situation of Rohingyas was of great concern to his country and laid emphasis on their safe and voluntary repatriation to Myanmar.

Swedish Ambassador in Dhaka Charlotta Schlyter urges the international community to provide more financial support and assistance for Rohingya refugees.

Global aid groups yesterday warned Myanmar that they would boycott any new camps for Rohingya returnees to Rakhine State, saying refugees must be allowed to settle in their original homes.

Myanmar's army has replaced the general in charge of Rakhine state following a military crackdown that has driven more than 600,000 Rohingya Muslims into Bangladesh amid reports of mass rape, torture and other crimes against humanity.
