UN refugee agency raises concern over Malaysia returns to Myanmar
Original: UN refugee agency concerned by Malaysia returns to Myanmar
The UN refugee agency has voiced concern over Malaysia's returns of people to Myanmar, according to a Reuters report. The agency says such returns may put vulnerable people at risk in a country still affected by conflict and instability following the 2021 military coup. The issue touches on Malaysia's treatment of Myanmar nationals, including refugees and asylum seekers, and the principle of not returning people to danger. No further details were available in the initial reporting.
Why now: A UN agency publicly criticising a government's refugee returns is a notable rights and diplomacy story
