The Burmese military launched a coup without warning. It announced this (1st) morning that it had taken over the local government. Senior officials including President Win Myint and the de facto leader Aung San Suu Kyi were arrested and placed under house arrest. The whole country will enter a one-year state of emergency. In this regard, leaders of many countries in the world have shouted to the Burmese military. However, it can also be found that European and American countries tend to condemn it, while most Asian countries have expressed conservative attitudes.
In response to the Myanmar military’s coup, the United States, Europe, and Australia have all over the sea shouting. The US White House spokesperson Jen Psaki issued a statement that the US will oppose any intention to change the election results or hinder the democratic process in Myanmar, and warned that the military will take action if it does not withdraw the relevant actions; Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne) called on the military to respect the rule of law and immediately release those illegally detained.
British Prime Minister Johnson and Johnson posted a tweet on Twitter, condemning the Burmese coup and illegal imprisonment including leader Aung San Suu Kyi and civilians, reiterating that “the people’s right to vote must be respected, and the elected leader must be released”; and the European director who also shouted through Twitter Chairperson Charles Michel strongly condemned the Myanmar coup and called on the military to release illegally detained people, and emphasized that the election results must be respected and the democratic process needs to be restored.
In contrast, the propaganda of most Asian countries appears to be much more moderate. As a neighboring country of Myanmar, China said through the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that it is further understanding the situation and hopes that all parties in Myanmar will properly handle their differences under the constitution and legal framework to maintain political and social stability. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of India and Singapore have both expressed that they will pay close attention to the situation. Neighboring Thailand and the Philippines hold similar attitudes, calling the matter an “internal affair” of Myanmar and will not interfere. Japanese government spokesman Katsunobu Kato also called for the hope that the crisis can be resolved in a peaceful state through democratic procedures.
In this regard, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of our country stated that the political situation in Myanmar is changing rapidly and will continue to be concerned, and calls on Myanmar’s political leaders to resolve disputes through peaceful and dialogue methods to ease tensions.
