Abu Dhabi: The UAE has called on the international community to help end the sectarian violence in Myanmar.

The UAE is "deeply concerned" about the ethnic violence in Myanmar that claimed hundreds of lives of Rohingya Muslims and left thousands of them homeless, UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan said.

The international community should urge Myanmar to take steps to stop violence against the Rohingyas and acts that disregard principles of basic human rights and international conventions, Al Nahyan said in a letter addressed to the UN Security Council.

The ethinic voilence in burma is disheartining, innocent people raped and killed by the other religeous group is to treated as voilenceagainst humanity, I am surprised to know that the buddist people doesnot kill a fly how can they kill innocent people especially Muslims, I think the buddist doesnot know the presence of 60 muslim countries in the world and majority of countries are rich and developed, they do help the Muslim any where in the world as our Allah has asked us to help our brothers let it from Africa or Burma, if such thing happen to buddist who will help them therefore think and follow the Humanity religion rather then hate each other and must know there must be retialation as happened in MUmbai against Assam Voilence
