The latest high-profile visit by three UN top officials, which just concluded, also failed to provide any glimmer of hope for the Rohingyas, who have already suffered a lot and are still suffering. Mark Lowcock, UN undersecretary general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator, António Vitorino, director general of International Organization for Migration (IOM), the UN migration agency, and Filippo Grandi, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, led the delegation that visited Cox’s Bazar on April 24-26. Before concluding the trip, the dignitary holds a press conference to reiterate the global body’s commitment to keep working toward safe and sustainable solutions for the Rohingyas. The UN supremo visited the Rohingyas and gave a heart-rending account of the Rohingyas’ sufferings. If the Rohingyas are being failed continuously by the UN, people’s trust in it, which has already been affected to a significant extent, will diminish further, turning the global body into an inactive one.
