28 December 2019 The United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution condemning the human rights violations perpetrated by Burma against the Muslim minority of the Rohingyas, which include arbitrary arrests, torture, rape and deaths in detention, and invites the government of that country to fight any form of hate speech against all minorities.

The document was approved at the Palazzo di Vetro in New York with 134 yes on 193 countries represented against 9 no and 28 abstentions.
