The summit in Mecca also stressed that Myanmar’s government has the responsibility to protect its citizens, the statement added.
OIC noted with concern growing Islamophobia in many parts of the world, according to the summit’s final statement. OIC said Islamophobia “as a contemporary form of racism and religious discrimination continues to grow in many parts of the world, as evident by the increase in incidents of religious intolerance, negative stereotyping, and hatred and violence against Muslims”.
