The UN Security Council called for Myanmar’s junta to release Aung San Suu Kyi Wednesday as it adopted its first ever resolution on the situation in the turmoil-ridden Southeast Asian country.
UNITED NATIONS, United States —
It also demands “an immediate end to all forms of violence” and asks for “all parties to respect human rights, fundamental freedoms and the rule of law.” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the resolution sent a “strong message” from the world that the junta “must end its violence across the country” and free prisoners.
Britain began circulating a draft text of Wednesday’s resolution in September. Several amendments were made to ensure its passing, UN watchers say.
