Mark Farmaner interviewed by Radio France Internationale

August 25, 2025 Campaign News

Mark Farmaner, Burma Campaign UK’s Director, told RFI: “For the refugees in Bangladesh and the Rohingya still in Burma, there is no hope that the situation will improve and that they can go home. In fact, every day, more and more refugees try to flee Rakhine State.

“We have seen the Arakan Army, a resistance army made up mainly of ethnic Rakhine, take control of almost all the State. But it commits the same human rights violations against the Rohingya as the official army. The Rohingya are thus caught in a vice between two violent armed forces, neither of whom want them to stay in Burma.”
