Terming the prevailing situation in Myanmar's Rakhine state complicated, Japanese Ambassador to Bangladesh Hiroyasu Izumi has said his country will stay beside the host country for immediate resolution into the crisis.

"Japan is beside Bangladesh on the Rohingya issue and it will continue its supports resolving the crisis," Izumi said while addressing a press conference at his Baridhara residence in Dhaka yesterday evening.

Claiming that Myanmar Army has been fighting against the Arakan Army for nearly two years after the exodus of Rohingyas to Bangladesh, the ambassador said the overall situation in Rakhine state has become more complicated than before.

Responding to a query on whether Japan would put any pressure on Myanmar to smooth repatriation of Rohingyas, Izumi said, "Only pressure is not enough. Dialogue with Myanmar is a must to put an end to the crisis".

About safe and dignified repatriation of Rohingyas, he said, "We will support and advocate for the implementation of Kofi Annan Commission's report resolving the Rohingya crisis.

Earlier on June 5 and 6, Izumi along with a popular Japanese football player and Goodwill Ambassador of UNICEF Japan, Makato Hasebe, visited Rohingya refugee camps in Cox's Bazar.

Addressing the press conference, Makato Hasebe said he was surprised to see that so many children in the refugee camps are being deprived of the rights of education.

The world community should come forward to help in ensuring the education of the Rohingya children, said the internationally famed footballer.
