The #Myanmar military regime of (ret) Sr. Gen. Min Aung Hlaing is committing outrageous & unacceptable violations of media freedom by abusing the @Interpol red notice system to harass journalists among exiled news outlets. Interpol needs to review and throw out all these abusive requests filed by #Burma. @ifjasiapacific @IFJGlobal @CPJAsia @RSF_AsiaPacific @RSF_en #WhatsHappeninginMyanmar

What really does the @StateDept think they are going to get from these dialogues with the #Myanmar military reps? The rare earths are in Kachin state, under KIO control & on China's doorstep, so not available. And the BGFs protecting the scam centers are allied with (ret) Sr. Gen. Min Aung Hlaing & the Myanmar army - so the Tatmadaw are part of the problem, not the solution. Once again, the Trump team is both immorally transactional and completely clueless...

PM @anwaribrahim meeting junta leader Min Aung Hlaing tomorrow is a slap in the face to ASEAN’s human rights principles. Is #ASEAN officially finished?
#So much for ASEAN principles. Thank you, PM Anwar.

When Malaysians were demanding that something be done about Rohingya refugees, did that “something” include rolling out a red carpet for a mass murderer of their fellow Muslims?
PM Ibrahim will likely live to regret sacrificing his reputation & integrity in this way. Min Aung Hlaing won’t solve his party’s domestic political problems but this visit will stain Pak Anwar as an enabler of this monster.

#Selangor : Myanmar President Min Aung Hlaing arrived in Malaysia today for a two-day official visit, with the repatriation of Myanmar nationals in Malaysia among key issues to be discussed with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Min and his delegation arrived at BRC KLIA at 12.30 pm on a special flight and were accorded a static guard of honour by the First Battalion of the Royal Ranger Regiment led by Capt Muhammad Ikhwan Adlan Jamaludin.

"It has to be stopped", SAC-M's Ben Lee tells BBC of #Malaysia's forced return of #Myanmar refugees.
By proceeding with the plan, @anwaribrahim has also betrayed:

This is what #Rohingya erasure looks like: villages destroyed, land seized and people forced into camps, forced labour and conscription.
The #ArakanArmy is making it impossible for Rohingya to ever return to their homeland.
How can Anwar Ibrahim be preparing to send Rohingya refugees back to this? How can any government talk about return while our villages are being erased and our land taken?

The air strikes on the market in Rakhine are not one-off. They are part of a pattern of systematic targeting and terrorizing of civilians by an illegitimate regime that is seeking to beat the Myanmar people into submission in order to hold onto power. These are war crimes and crimes against humanity.
#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar
The attacks, carried out over two consecutive days, targeted civilians, including displaced persons, resistance sources said

“The contest over UN seat is a struggle over whether guns can manufacture legitimacy, whether atrocities can be converted into diplomatic privilege, & whether UN will uphold the principles it repeatedly invokes."
#Myanmar’s UN seat belong to MMR people.

When meeting with officials of Min Aung Hlaing’s criminal regime, remember they are carrying out a state policy of sexual violence against political prisoners, including raping them in front of other detainees
This is who they are
Don’t legitimize this

Female prisoners in Myanmar are subjected to widespread torture, sexual violence and life-threatening medical neglect, Human Rights Watch said, underlining the chronic ill-treatment of thousands of detainees in the war-torn nation reut.rs/4rq0vF1

.@AmbassadorTun represents #Myanmar people. ✅
The UN Credentials Committee must uphold democratic representation & reject legitimacy for a junta that commits nationwide war crimes & crimes against humanity.
Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun must keep his seat.✊

American citizens! Take action now, & tell your Congressional representative to act now, & support temporary protected status (TPS) for refugees from #Burma, #Myanmar. Burmese in the USA cannot be forced to return to Myanmar, where they would face persecution, arrest, torture in custody, & worse.

9 years without justice for #RohingyaGenocide & #Rohingya continue to face persecution today.

Today we mark #RohingyaGenocideRemembranceDay. In 2017, from my position at @USUN I had a front row view of the weak & ineffective response of the @UN & the rest of the international community to an emerging genocide that was telegraphed by years of hate speech, discriminatory1/6
