The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) has failed to fulfill its core responsibility concerning Myanmar, stated Myanmar’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun, during a high-level meeting of the UN Security Council on "Enhancing the Effectiveness of UN Peace Operations and Responding to Contemporary Challenges."
"I have repeatedly raised concerns about the alarming situation in Myanmar at the Security Council and relevant UN meetings. The current state of Myanmar has profound implications for regional peace and security. Yet, despite the gravity of the situation, the Security Council has remained indifferent and has consistently failed to take necessary actions. Myanmar is facing an emergency situation, but the Security Council continues to turn a blind eye and remains inactive," said Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun.
He further emphasized that despite repeated pleas from the people of Myanmar for protection and intervention, the Security Council has ignored their calls and failed them.
