On Martyrs’ Day, July 19, we honor General Aung San and the fallen leaders assassinated in 1947. Burmese military that orchestrated his killing now cowardly detains his daughter, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.Their shame runs deep, but the spirit of martyrs will outlast their tyranny.
Wishing Senator @SenMcConnell a speedy recovery and full strength after his recent hospitalization.Your decades of steadfast leadership for Burma/Myanmar human rights from sanctions on the junta to supporting democracy and the people mean a lot. Get well soon! 🙏 #Burma#Myanmar
Thank you, President @EmmanuelMacron, for actively urging action on Aung San Suu Kyi’s wellness and freedom. Your strong voice for human rights and justice gives hope to millions. We stand with you on this. 🙏

India & China inviting Min Aung Hlaing is a sick joke and a direct insult to the people of Myanmar and democracy. The two biggest instigators, playing their selfish games at Myanmar’s expense. Disgraceful.

Welcome @StateDept Asst. Secretary Michael George DeSombre’s strong statement: The United States will continue imposing sanctions on Myanmar’s junta until they respect the will of the Burmese people and restore democracy. Standing firm against military tyranny. #Myanmar
Junta claims they’ve moved Daw Aung San Suu Kyi to house arrest & released a photo. After years of secrecy and cruelty, forgive us for doubting. Old photo? PR stunt under international pressure? Real proof of life and her wellbeing needed now—not junta tricks. #FreeAungSanSuuKyi
President U Win Myint’s house now has increased security & limited visitors even after his “amnesty” release.
This is how the junta’s amnesty really works: never true freedom. It’s just house arrest. #SaveMyanmar
Tomorrow is #Burmese New Year. By tradition, the Junta releases prisoners, including political ones.
I hope they free Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and all other political prisoners. They never should have been arrested.
Hoping for their release. 🙏

Thingyan isn’t just a festival, it’s the fresh New Year, memories, culture, and identity. No Burmese who has truly experienced Thingyan ever says “I don’t miss it.” As a diaspora, it hits even harder. But until this regime is gone, I don't see myself to celebrate it this lifetime
Min Aung Hlaing, the general who staged a coup against the elected government, has now been installed as President by his own military-backed party. A self-serving charade to fulfill his personal ambition for the title. What a shameful spectacle.
Min Aung Hlaing, the leader of the coup, is a criminal responsible for the genocide of the Rohingya and the killing of thousands of innocent civilians across Myanmar since 2021. Today, he became the president in a civilian role. This criminal should be in jail, not ruling the country.

#Myanmar#military chief Senior General Min Aung Hlaing hands his post to successor Gen. Ye Win Oo, whom he appointed recently as Army Chief. Senior General himself is on his way to Presidency seat, enabling him to attain his goal, which I had written https://t.co/KyrE2TYtsI
Ye Win Oo pushes military conscription on Myanmar’s youth while his son Htet Ye Naung ‘serves’ partying at clubs in Yangon, safe from the frontlines. Elite kids get fake cushy posts. Ordinary families lose sons to civil war. This is junta privilege, as usual.#SaveMyanmar
Min Aung Hlaing hands military command to his loyal henchman Ye Win Oo the same man who led the 2021 arrests of Aung San Suu Kyi & the president. Same regime, new titles. ; Its musical chairs among coup plotters. change requires dismantling the junta system. #SaveMyanmar
