International Criminal Court (ICC) Prosecutor Karim A.A. Khan has expressed his support towards Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's values and leadership.
Foreign Minister Hasan Mahmud met the ICC Prosecutor in The Hague, Netherlands on Thursday.
The Foreign Minister informed the ICC Prosecutor about the attacks by miscreants on state institutions in the country, damage to property, vandalism and invited him to visit Bangladesh at a convenient time.
Khan also appreciated Bangladesh's contribution and cooperation in upholding global justice and accountability and international legal system.
Ambassador of Bangladesh to the Netherlands Riaz Hamidullah was present in the meeting, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"I am impressed by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's generosity and humanity towards the Rohingyas who have taken refuge in Bangladesh. I also realize the price that Bangladesh has to pay for sheltering Rohingya displaced from Myanmar for seven years," the Ministry quoted the ICC Prosecutor as saying.
Foreign Minister Hasan praised the position and leadership of the ICC Prosecutor on the situation in Gaza, Ukraine and Rakhine State during the meeting.
Highlighting the Rohingya issue, he said that due to other global issues, support and attention to the call for justice for the Rohingyas is waning. "It's being seen as a concern of Bangladesh only."
Minister Hasan also highlighted the greater socio-economic challenges and huge security risks due to the prolonged presence of Rohingyas in Bangladesh.
Prosecutor Khan said a permanent solution to the plight of the Rohingyas would be found when Myanmar will grant citizenship to the Rohingyas.
Then only, they can return to their homeland peacefully and move freely in Myanmar like all other nationalities.
He also mentioned that the international community should do whatever necessary to help the Rohingyas.
