Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan has on Thursday strongly condemned reported atrocities committed against the Rohingya Muslim community in Myanmar. He urged the international community to intervene to stop persecution of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar. He said persecution of a particular community in such manner is blatant violation of fundamental humanitarian principles. "The Burmese government's silence on mass killings of Rohingya Muslims is disturbing," he added.
Imran also urged the Pakistani government to mobilise diplomatic efforts on urgent basis to stop the potential genocide of Muslims in Myanmar.
