Burmese #Myanmar military seizes power in coup detaining civilian leaders including #AungSanSuuKyi and democracy activists. Strong and Immediate global response is needed for safe release of those unlawfully held and taking action to hold the military accountable. #Myanmarcoup

The military coup taking place in Myanmar is a dangerous step back from the political progress its citizens have worked toward over the past 10 years. The world’s democracies must join in a coordinated effort to protect the light of freedom in Southeast Asia.

"The United States removed sanctions on Burma over the past decade based on progress toward democracy. The reversal of that progress will necessitate an immediate review of our sanction laws and authorities, followed by appropriate action." whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…

100% agreed! Korean government 대한민국 외교부 MOFA_KR should speak out about #BurmaCoup condemning military and join international efforts to hold them accountable. President 문재인 ‘s New Southern Policy should include support for democracy in the region.

I wrote this months before #BurmaCoup But recommendations are still relevant. “Funding shouldn’t go to the regime but to the country’s democracy and developmental projects and humanitarian assistance benefitting the people of Burma.”

Protests have started in major cities of #Burma against #BurmaCoup and many of my friends are leading it. They are fighting to hold the line of fragile democracy risking their lives. Please learn about #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar and support! reuters.com/article/us-mya…

#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

Protesters in Myanmar continue to inspire the world as actions spread throughout the country. A general strike has been called for tomorrow. Myanmar is rising up to free all who have been detained and reject military dictatorship once and for all. We are with you.

Loss of human freedom in Burma is loss of human freedom everywhere Read more from Bush Institute Leadership Programs Manager Michael Bailey in Dallas Morning News: ow.ly/eot550Dukgc

"We stand with the duly elected representatives of the people of Burma in their efforts to speak for the people of the country. We join them in demanding the immediate and full restoration of the democratically elected government." -@StateDeptSpox

While the US government’s strong and timely response in Burma is welcomed, we need more countries to join the efforts in supporting the Burmese people and holding the military accountable. Learn more from @jieunpyun:
