The US led governments around the world in calling for the restoration of Myanmar’s democracy on February 1 after the military staged a coup, arresting civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi and other politicians.
The calls came as the new Myanmar military government pledged to hold another national election and award the right to form a new government to the winning political party.
