Military Interface in Myanmar and the Uncertainty of Rohingya Repatriation

Abstract

Rohingyas are hesitant to return to Myanmar because they are unsure of what will happen to them there, including if they will receive their citizenship back, life security, human dignity, and access to their abandoned homes. This study, which is based on content analysis, looks at the state of repatriation operations, the government's diplomatic skills, and the effects of military intervention on Rohingya refugees in Myanmar. The prime question was how military intervention in Myanmar jeopardizes Bangladesh's current diplomatic efforts to secure the return of Rohingya refugees. Findings show that the deteriorating political climate in Myanmar can be blamed for the failure of repatriation negotiations between Bangladesh and Myanmar. The Rohingyas are anxious and frustrated since the military government's position on repatriation is still unclear. Evidence of ethnic cleansing has been found by international human rights organizations, but China, Russia, and other powerful nations have sided with Myanmar. The analysis emphasizes how crucial Chinese participation in the bilateral effort to resolve the Rohingya issue is. Concerns are raised about the future of the repatriation procedure in the light of the military coup in Myanmar. Repatriation could be used by the military government to justify its control and to build a reputation abroad. The vulnerable situation of the Rohingyas needs to be addressed with a consistent and morally sound plan. This study emphasizes the significance of having a consistent and ethically sound approach for handling the Rohingyas' vulnerable situation and safeguarding their well-being.
