The Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA) said on Saturday they were ready to respond to any peace move offered by the Myanmar government, although a one-month ceasefire they declared to enable the delivery of aid in violence-racked Rakhine State, is about to end. When the ARSA announced its one-month ceasefire from Sept. 10, a government spokesman said: “We have no policy to negotiate with terrorists.” The United Nations says violence against Rohingya women and children in Myanmar’s Rakhine state may amount to crimes against humanity. The stance of the Indian government regarding the Rohingya crisis is a source of consternation, according to Bela Bhatia.
