All natIOns deserve Peace and stabIlIty

Bangladeshi Foreign Minister Dr A K Abdul Momen, who is also the outgoing President of the Council of Ministers, said humanity is above all and that nations should look forward to seeing peace and stability in all nations.

“We must all work towards peace, justice, fraternity and human development. Acts of intolerance, inequality and injustices of all forms should be rejected,” he said.

“Terrorism in a real threat to the entire world and we must fight terror collectively. We must not allow terrorists to use our territories to kill people and deprive others of their peace.”

The Bangladeshi minister said minority Muslims in some states like Myanmar are marginalised, discriminated and mistreated, and called for the end of such injustices.

“We must find solutions for the root causes of conflicts like that in Rohingya. Bangladesh has tried to support the Muslims from Rohingya but we cannot solve this crisis alone. All OIC states have to join hands to end the injustices and ensure peace in for Muslims in that part of the world,” he added.

He discussed the latest situation on the repatriation of the Rohingya refugees as per the agreement signed between Bangladesh and Myanmar and urged members to extend all possible cooperation and support to Bangladesh for implementation of the terms of the agreement.
