Situation in Myanmar 'ethnic cleansing' of Rohingyas: US
US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Wednesday condemned Myanmar's treatment of the Rohingya Muslim minority, labelling their actions "ethnic cleansing". "No provocation can justify the horrendous atrocities that have ensued," he said. Earlier this month, Tillerson refused to use the term "ethnic cleansing" while describing the Myanmar military's action in the Rakhine State.
