The Rohingya are a Muslim minority group living in Myanmar's Rakhine State, near the border of Bangladesh. They are denied citizenship and face racial and religious tensions with the local Buddhist Rakhine population. This has led to many Rohingya fleeing as refugees to neighboring countries. Potential solutions include Myanmar granting the Rohingya full citizenship rights and repealing discriminatory laws, as well as increased international pressure on Myanmar to implement political reforms and protect the Rohingya.
