NGOs seek arms embargo
Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) from 31 countries on Wednesday signed an open letter calling for the UN Security Council to urgently impose an arms embargo on the country’s military. “The UN Council should urgently impose a global arms embargo on Myanmar in response to the military coup and to deter the junta from committing further abuses,” the letter said. The nearly 130 NGOs went on to say: “Governments that permit arms transfers to Myanmar including China, India, Israel, North Korea, the Philippines, Russia, and Ukraine should immediately stop the supply of any weapons, munitions, and related equipment.”
