While disbursement of the third instalment of the International Monetary Fund’s $4.7 billion loan for Bangladesh in June is to be expected, counting on the $1.15 billion tranche to provide “much-needed relief to the country's dwindling foreign exchange reserves” is misguided.

New Delhi:
Terming the Rohingya crisis as a regional catastrophe, Bangladesh Foreign Minister AH Mahmood Ali on Tuesday said that it is no longer an internal issue of Myanmar.
Mahmood appealed to the international community to put pressure on Myanmar to take back about 500,000 refugees living in Bangladesh adding that a total of 3,000 Rohingya Muslims have been killed since the army crackdown was launched and Human Rights Watch has got evidence of 284 villages of having been bulldozed.
