Myanmar has selected a new representative to the United Kingdom, replacing the ambassador who was ousted from the embassy in a dramatic standoff after breaking ranks with the military over its Feb 1 coup, two people familiar with the matter said.

A spokesperson for the military-controlled government in Myanmar did not respond to calls from Reuters seeking comment.The former ambassador, Kyaw Zwar Minn, was locked out of the London embassy in April after calling for the release of detained civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi. The military government said he had been dismissed and that the deputy ambassador had taken control.

Kyaw Zwar Minn remains in Britain and has urged the British government to refuse to recognize any envoys appointed by the junta and to send them back to Myanmar.Under the Vienna Convention, Myanmar would need approval from Britain to appoint a new ambassador but permission would not be needed for other posts.
