China, Russia undermine international Myanmar response, EU's top diplomat says

China and Russia both have ties to Myanmar's armed forces, as the largest and second-largest suppliers of weapons to the country, respectively.

The United Nations Security Council last week called for the release of Aung San Suu Kyi and others detained by the military, but stopped short of condemning the coup. The EU is preparing fresh sanctions on individuals, as well as companies owned by the Myanmar military. The bloc in March agreed on a first set of sanctions on 11 individuals linked to the coup, including the commander-in-chief of the military.While EU economic leverage in the country is relatively small, Borrell said the EU could offer to increase its economic ties with Myanmar if democracy is restored. That could include more trade and investments in sustainable development, he said.

EU foreign direct investment in Myanmar totalled US$700 million in 2019, compared with US$19 billion from China. The military says it staged the coup because an election won by Aung San Suu Kyi’s party last November was rigged. The election commission has dismissed the assertion.

China, Russia undermine international Myanmar response, EU's top diplomat saysBRUSSELS (Reuters) -The European Union's top diplomat said on Sunday Russia and China were hampering a united international response to Myanmar's military coup and that the EU could offer more economic incentives if democracy returns to the country. 'It comes as no surprise that Russia and China are blocking the attempts of the U.N. Security Council, for example to impose an arms embargo,' EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said in a blog post. As a verified media, you should not be such ridiculous. So you means if NDL seize power, Myanmar does not need army and weapons, right? Western countries can arbitrary invade Myanmar to exploit resources. See Iraq, Libya, lol
