Japan and India have significant public and private investments in Myanmar which they must reframe due to the current civil war and China's growing influence.
The Myanmar military continues to suppress democracy 3 years after it seized power in a coup d'etat, displacing people and costing many lives.
The Myanmar regime, which recently bombed civilians, enjoys the support of Russia and China. The UN General Assembly’s hands are tied.
The execution of four prisoners, including a member of parliament, is a clear sign that the military’s repression is becoming more severe.
