No American or European Company imposed Sanctions. Impose sanctions NOW!
After #Myanmar’s junta gunned down protesters, it piled on new human rights violations incl more unlawful internet shutdowns that appear to be aimed at hiding their brutality.
A global arms embargo & targeted sanctions shld be imposed immediately @hrw https://t.co/uJIKana1iL pic.twitter.com/VnvsfA2HJH

Under martial law, imposed by #Myanmar’s ruthless military junta, many of the people charged for peaceful opposition to the coup will face military trials & legal proceedings that will deprive them of basic fair trial rights. @HRW’s @LLakhdhir:https://t.co/0TtGiuM2mH

The heartbreak in #Myanmar.
The military junta & its armed thugs feel they can kill, torture, & crackdown on freedom, rights & democracy with impunity.
They are wrong. Evidence of their crimes is being gathered, & they will be held accountable & face justice.#SaveMyanmar https://t.co/fMbxh3zXEb

„Junta leaders don’t belong in power, they belong behind bars“
Clear message from @UN Expert urging states to urgently impose targeted sanctions on #Myanmar military leaders & military-owned companies.

As the number of peaceful protesters killed goes up day after day, perhaps it’s time that @DominicRaab realised that banning a handful of generals from holidays in the UK is not having the impact on the military he bizarrely seemed to think it would. https://t.co/WVU94ybYMw

#Myanmar junta’s brutal crackdown on democracy & rights continues w impunity.
But, the military leaders & their armed thugs should know that evidence of their atrocities is being gathered, & they will be held accountable & face justice for their crimes.#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar https://t.co/Xm8mBctZDY

Dom’s dithering means that British companies can still do business with the military.
He won’t say he supports Burma being referred to the ICC.
He refuses to join the Rohingya genocide case at the ICJ.
He ignores calls to build a coalition of countries imposing arms embargoes.— Mark Farmaner (@MarkFarmaner) March 14, 2021

#Myanmar govt’s facial recognition surveillance project under so-called „Smart Cities“ program now gives junta more tools to crackdown on dissent & rights.

#Myanmar’s junta is funded by a huge chunk of the nat’l budget.
But the generals also draw a vast & secretive income from sprawling business interests.#EU should urgently deliver on pledge to sanction the military leadership & military owned companies.https://t.co/i6O8iCsdjb

#Myanmar’s bloody crackdown should trigger a serious & united int’l response, incl targeted sanctions against military junta leaders & their companies.
Those responsible for ruthless killings, disappearances & #torture should also face criminal justice.https://t.co/8hun2txkXo

.@DominicRaab keeps welcoming what the US is doing but never gets round to doing anything himself.
1) Sanction military companies
2) Build an arms embargo coalition
3) Support ICC referral
4) Join genocide case at the ICJPeople are dying. A sense of urgency is appropriate. https://t.co/bPGjjaStHD

Statements, visa ban & assets freeze (though there’s none) by UK & EU haven’t stopped peaceful protesters being deliberately shot in the head. When will you:
-sanction military companies?
-Build a global arms embargo?
-Join the ICJ genocide case?
-Support referral to the ICC?— Wai Hnin Pwint Thon (@MissWHPT) March 13, 2021
