“The British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said a delay in deporting the Rohingyas might complicate the issue,” the Prime Minister’s Press Secretary Ihsanul Karim told reporters. Hasina agreed with Johnson and said Myanmar’s de facto head of the government Aung San Suu Kyi should also take quick steps to speed up the deportation process. Johnson told Hasina they were ‘looking into the matter’, the prime minister’s press secretary said. They also discussed the importance of free and fair elections, and the foreign secretary encouraged Hasina’s continued commitment to women and girls, including her efforts to achieve gender equality. Johnson also reiterated the UK’s support to the international Rohingya humanitarian response.
