“We are prepared to start the verification process at any time,” Suu Kyi said on Tuesday, in her first address since the start of the latest military crackdown in Rakhine state. Approximately 236,000 Rohingyas returned to Myanmar under the agreement. The final round of the repatriations occurred in 2005, with 33,000 Rohingyas going home to Myanmar. Suu Kyi also addressed the media reports concerning the Rohingya crisis and promised an investigation. She also welcomed Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan, who had postponed a recently scheduled visit to Myanmar, to come to Naypyidaw anytime.
