from northern and well into bangladesh. it is in its own way a nightmare because it's ethically based and it has been around for a long time and it's not getting better. the numbers have fallen off from 12,000 to 15,000 a day crossing to about 1,000 to 3,000, but even at that rate, the numbers are engine expected to exceed 1 million very shortly. so that is the bad situation that we face. the second point is we should be encouraged, however, by several things. one, the generosity of the government, people and host communities of bangladesh. and secondly, by the remarkable resilience of the people. that gives us hope. third point is that we need to be very, very steadfast in our commitments to this particular crisis, which is unique in its own way, and even though amidst eight or nine armed conflicts worldwide, it is the one that pulse at our heartstrings the most because of what it represents in terms of total rejection of one of the most rejected people in the world. so we need, therefore -- third point, we need to be movi

these refugee camps in bangladesh but the truth is bangladesh while that allows them to come to these camps it will not allow the road to become citizens of of bangladesh so you've got a situation where me and more will not recognize them bangladesh will not recognize them these are stateless people what needs to change before these refugees can become normal people like you and me. not only are they stateless are also some of the most persecuted people on the planet the stories i heard were horrific but of course there is a long background to all of these terrible stories that have taken place and in the last months. pretty much everyone i interviewed you know is desperate to be able to have the option to stay and. they want that security they want to be able to sleep at night they want their children to be relatively safe and the world needs to do it for them it can to make sure that they get that safety that they desperately. do you have confidence sky in the bangladesh authorities of providing an area for these refugees to do to be safe because we're what we're talking about right

with regard to bangladesh, i have been in communications with bangladesh diplomats here in washington. we are very, very grateful for the incredible safe haven that country has provided. not only in response to the current crisis over a half million refugees, but substantial populations who have crossed following previous crises into bangladesh. i defer to my colleagues to talk about the assistance but what we are focusing on is the much-needed communication between burma and bangladesh. we've seen some movement on that this week. we understand that the bangladesh senior official plans to travel to the capital of burma for further discussions. this is good. the two countries have much in common, many challenges they need to overcome. most importantly the safe path to return of refugees to their original homes. there was an earlier question about citizenship. our understanding from the authorities in burma is that citizenship is not a requirement for return. that's a separate process. verification and path to citizenship. there will need to be a process to identify where they came from

bangladesh deserves credit and i talked again with the bangladesh ambassador the other day. they deserve rhecredit for open their borders to this influx of refugees. the government i know will honor its promise in bangladesh to build shelter for new arrivals and provide medical services. in response to this crises, the trump administration announced that it would provide $32 million in humanitarian assistance and $28 million of that is going to bangladesh right now, and the remainder is going -- supposed to go into burma. that's most welcomed. the state counsellor is a nobel prize winner but she must make it a top priority to provide for the safety of those in burma including the rohingya. this is a dialogue i have had with her for a number of years on this subject, and the international community is pressing her as well. we know the military government is calling the shots, but we expect everybody who has access to a microphone inside myanmar to tell people the reality of what's going on in the country. that includes her. we know they're not hearing it from their media, but

and secondly, the appeal today is actually for bangladesh. you are, and particularly for the un refugee agency, are you concerned you are treading a fine line given that, i know you talk about return, but there doesn't appear to be a lot for refugees to return to given that a lot of these villages have been destroyed. are you worried about creating a situation where people just stay out of terror and they have -- and having nothing to return to? >> thanks. no. on the first one, of course you have to distinguish the capital of rakine, mid and northern. there the un organizations and most of the ngos have not had access since this crisis began at the end of august. a number of other agencies have remained there, including with international presence, but they are not allowed to do the proper work. that work has been given by the government of myanmar to the red cross movement, as you know. but the request of the secretary general is that the un organization can have it restored. the less critical area, there we do have access to the idp camps w

i want to ask questions about bangladesh. these reef gees are largely going to bangladesh which has its own set of challenges. could you tell the committee how the flow of refugees is affecting that country? are there things we could do? >> senator kaine, the fresh of refugees entering bangladesh is hard for this country. also facing difficult weather, it is nearly impossible. i think that bangladesh has done an extremely admirable job, first by opening its borders. then by working with the international community to permit opportunities for assistance to reach the people that are there. one of the most important things they have done is to work with the unhcr to undertake a registration of those arriving. i spoke with the dcm yesterday. he told me 13,000 are being registered per day. >> there are about 600,000 fled. >> 603,0 0 by the last count. i think that bangladesh has demonstrated a great deal of patience in working with the authorities. there was a meeting today in which the home affairs minister is working -- of bangl

bangladesh says it needs urgent help. almost a million refugees from emr's ron kind state are now in bangladesh. more than half arrived in the past three months alone. most of the refugees we know our children. monday's donor conference in geneva brought the total amount that's raised to help them to about $340 million, but that is still short of the $430 million that agencies say is needed. our coverage begins with this report. >> thousands of people still flee me on our everyday. 600,000 head to bangladesh in recent weeks. almost all of them have experienced great shop -- suffering. he wonders the refugee camp and cox is bizarre. clearly traumatized, the 11-year-old tells us what happened. >> my father was murdered by soldiers. thankfully, i wasn't there. neighbors had hidden me, and then they brought me to bangladesh. >> he it -- she is now searching for her mother. she hopes she also made it to bangladesh. she doesn't even have a tent, she sleeps out in the open. more than half of the refugees here are children. the r
