Repatriation of people
in the camps and
related matters.
Noted
The problem of the people in the camps in eastern Nepal is
not a typical refugee situation. It is a highly complex issue
with its genesis in illegal immigration. Recognizing the
humanitarian nature of this issue, the core group of
countries led by the United States of America had initiated
the resettlement process. Third country resettlement offers
the best option for the resolution of this long standing
humanitarian problem. Therefore, the resettlement process
should be allowed to continue in order to take it to its
logical conclusion. Bhutan remains in contact with the
Government of Nepal. Bhutan is also in regular touch with
the UNHCR.
