United Nations, Aug 28 (efe-epa).- One year after the Rohingya crisis broke out in Myanmar, the international community still remains divided on how to respond to the crimes committed against this ethnic minority and about their future.
The divide was evident on Tuesday during a United Nations Security Council meeting.
The meeting took place a day after UN experts investigating the Rohingya crisis said that the Myanmar military carried out atrocities against the Rohingya with “genocidal intent”.
The experts urged the Security Council to refer the case to the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague or to create an ad hoc tribunal to try those responsible for the crimes.
On Tuesday, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres did not explicitly mention the ICC, but said that the Security Council should take the recommendations seriously and ensure accountability.
Guterres stance was similar to that of the Western powers in the Security Council – the United States, France and the United Kingdom – but it was rejected by the other two permanent members of the body, Russia and China.
