A 20-member delegation of Awami League (AL), led by its presidium member and chairman of Parliamentary Standing Committee on Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Abdul Matin Khasru, leaves for China tomorrow (Wednesday) at the invitation of Communist Party of China (CPC), reports BSS.
"During the visit, we'll meet CPC leaders and discuss various issues where the Rohingya crisis and their repatriation to Myanmar will come up for discussion," said Advocate Abdul Matin Khasru at the party chief Sheikh Hasina's office at Dhanmondi-3 on Monday afternoon.
Khasru was briefing reporters ahead of the AL delegation's eight-day tour to China from September 4-11, 2019.
He said, "We'll request the CPC leaders so that China put pressure on Myanmar and thus Myanmar takes back their own Rohingya nationals to their country," he added.
Khasru said, "The Rohingya crisis is putting adverse impacts on our environment, ecology, infrastructures and on the whole the living of the host communities there,".
The Rohingya problem could be resolved if China takes strong role in this regard, he added.
