The GCC foreign ministers, at a meeting in Riyadh yesterday, condemned what they said was a policy of racism and discrimination against Rohingya Muslims of Myanmar and said atrocities being perpetrated on them were a flagrant violation of human rights.

The ministers called on the international community, the UN Security Council and civil organisations the world over to look for a quick and effective solution to the plight of the Rohingyas within the framework of UN and OIC resolutions and the UN Human Rights Charter.

“We demand that urgent humanitarian aid be provided to the suffering Rohingya people,” the ministers said in a communiqué at the end of the meeting, reports QNA.

Foreign Minister and President of the current session of GCC ministerial council H E Dr Khalid bin Mohamed Al Attiyah chaired the council’s 135th session in Riyadh, also attended by GCC Secretary-General Dr Abdullatif Al Zayani.
