Foreign Affairs Minister Nanaia Mahuta announced changes to New Zealand s relationship with Myanmar last month after the military took control of the country.  We do not recognise the legitimacy of the military-led government and we call on the military to immediately release all detained political leaders and restore civilian rule, Mahuta said at the time.  As a result of these concerns, New Zealand is suspending all high-level political and military contact with Myanmar. An Al Jazeera video of Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announcing that New Zealand would suspend ties with Myanmar has racked up more than 9000 likes on Facebook. Violent protests have broken out across Myanmar, with reports of at least 40 people killed for speaking out against the military, who human rights groups say have opened fire on crowds.
