China s role in Rohingya repatriation is turning out to be a decisive factor in resolving the crisis as the country embarked on the role of a mediator between Bangladesh and Myanmar and is likely to continue it until a solution is found, analysts have said.
The country has taken up the role as the international community s pressure on Myanmar has yielded nothing concrete so far.
A member of the UN Security Council and also a close ally of Myanmar, China is trying to establish its global standing as well as maintain and increase its economic and geopolitical influence on Myanmar, the analysts observed.
