The United Nations and the government of Bangladesh have signed a memorandum of understanding to work together on help for Rohingya refugees on an island in the Bay of Bengal.

联合国和孟加拉国政府签署了一份谅解备忘录，共同帮助孟加拉湾一个岛屿上的罗兴亚难民。

The Bangladeshi government has already moved more than 19,000 out of 1.1 million Rohingya refugees in southern Bangladesh to the island of Bhasan Char.

孟加拉国政府已经将孟加拉国南部110万罗兴亚难民中的1.9万多人转移到Bhasan Char岛。

Initially, the U.N. and other aid agencies opposed Bangladesh's plan to move the refugees from camps to the island, saying the land was not fit for habitation.

起初，联合国和其他援助机构反对孟加拉国将难民从难民营转移到该岛的计划，称这片土地不适合居住。

But the government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina says it has spent $112 million on improvements that include seawalls, hospital, schools and mosques.

U.N. officials said in a statement that they signed the memorandum of understanding on Saturday in order to start serving the population now living on Bhasan Char.

联合国官员在一份声明中表示，他们周六签署了谅解备忘录，以便开始为目前生活在Bhasan Char的居民提供服务。

Bangladesh has sheltered more than a million refugees from neighboring Myanmar, which does not recognize them as citizens.

A U.N.-sponsored investigation in 2018 recommended the prosecution of Myanmar's top military commanders on charges of genocide, war crime(s) and crimes against humanity for the violence against the Rohingya.

His detention came just hours after he announced he had returned to Georgia following an eight-year absence.
