The US committed $60 million, while the UK announced $36 million, according to Chief Adviser Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam. Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus addressed the opening session and called for seven-point actions to resolve the crisis. He described Rohingya repatriation as the only peaceful solution and proposed creating a practical roadmap for their safe and dignified return with reasonable stabilization of Rakhine. Yunus warned that as funding declines, repatriation remains the only peaceful option available. [/QUOTE]
