Moscow supports efforts to establish in Myanmar interfaith dialogue and calls not to interfere in the internal Affairs of the state, said the official representative of the Russian foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
“It is important to understand that the desire, the desire to interfere in the internal Affairs of a sovereign state can lead to the exacerbation of sectarian strife. Once again, we support efforts to establish in Myanmar inter-religious dialogue with the participation of spiritual leaders of all faiths,” said Zakharov to journalists.
She noted that the government of Myanmar has taken steps to facilitate the return to places of permanent residence of internally displaced persons. “Expect to be taken similar measures and in relation to other categories of persons involved in migration crisis,” she said.
