Burma Campaign UK said that Boris Johnson’s critical comments on Burma could have gone further, according to the Middle East news service The National.
Burma Campaign UK’s director, Mark Farmaner, said that the British government needs to be pressurising Ming Aung Hlaing, the armed forces’ commander-in-chief, in order to halt the attacks. He also said the Foreign Secretary should have explicitly referred to human rights violations. “Why no mention of mass killings, burning villages or use of the words human rights?”
