Bangladesh is temporarily sheltering over one million Rohingya refugees/Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals from Myanmar, while being compelled to assume enormous amounts of limited resources to meet costs and impacts incurred upon its economy, society, and environment. The Government of Bangladesh emerges as the largest donor of the humanitarian operations for the Rohingyas sheltered in the country. In 2022, it alone spent around USD 1.69 billion for these Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals.
To avoid the irreversibility of such impacts, Bangladesh looks forward to the response of the international community that is proportionate to its humane gesture, with tangible actions in Bangladesh, in liaison with UNCT in Myanmar, to ensure the sustainable and voluntary repatriation of Rohingyas.
