1/2 Burma Campaign UK welcomes this new round of sanctions from the USA, targeting suppliers of aviation fuel to the Burmese military. These are well targeted sanctions and must be followed by a complete ban on the supply of aviation fuel. https://t.co/pTw8wuc32N

[Blood Money Campaign @bloodmoney22222]

@POTUS & @USTreasury: Myanmar people have been demanding to #SanctionMOGE since 2021. We'd like to know why U.S Government do not hear the voices of Myanmar People and how many dead bodies need to #SanctionMOGE?

.@rihanna shld stand with the ppl of #Myanmar & support a gems ban, after wearing a $1 million Burmese ruby ring at #SuperBowl

The ring is from NYC's Bayco Jewels, which has at least 9 items on their site featuring Myanmar gems

Myanmar gems fund junta atrocities. Ban the trade!

[Justice For Myanmar @JusticeMyanmar]

📣@TradeGov took down the oil & gas page of their Burma guide after we highlighted it in our feature exposing US oil service biz. The page advised biz to seek profits in Myanmar, helping fund the junta. USG shld review all Burma biz advisories & ensure consistency w/ human rights

📣👏🏽UK sanctioned Asia Sun Trading Co Ltd, 2 directors + Cargo Link Co Ltd for their role "in the repression of the civilian population in Myanmar by making available economic resources (aviation fuel) directly or indirectly to or for the benefit of the Myanmar security forces."

📣 JFM welcomes targeted sanctions imposed on #Myanmar junta two years after illegal coup attempt

[Mark Farmaner @MarkFarmaner]

Canada becomes the first country to introduce a full ban on aviation fuel supply to Burma.

Today marks the 74th Karen Revolution day. It is a significant and valuable day for the Karen nation. On this special occasion, KWO conveys our best wishes to all Karen Revolution leaders, soldiers and all Karen people around the world.

[US Campaign 4 Burma @uscb]

The US gov't exempted a Japanese construction company from sanctions, allowing them to make payments to #Myanmar Economic Corporation. $1.3 million was transferred from July to November 2022. This money is funding the #Burma junta's atrocities

[Teppei Kasai @TeppeiKasai]

🚨NEW: In addition to payments from July to November 2022, @hrw analyzed transaction records that show Japan's Yokogawa Bridge Corp. made payments to the Myanmar military conglomerate MEC in December 2022 and January 2023, a total of $2 million.

[sisters2sisters.myanmar @sis2sisMM]

At a time when the USG claim to be supporting #Ukraine, why would the @USTreasury undermine their own efforts by allowing transactions with entities such as the Myanmar military, a group that is openly in business with Putin’s Russia?

#WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

[Phil Robertson @Reaproy]

Outrageous & unacceptable decision by @USTreasury to waive sanctions for #Japan firm giving $1 million to #Myanmar junta controlled MEC! Looks like @SecBlinken is either asleep at the switch or State doesn't care about effective pressure on #Burma regime! https://t.co/zAEsE9Dw1H

[Blood Money Campaign @bloodmoney22222]

US has allowed 1.3million payment to MEC which was sanctioned by US government in 2021. Is US government indirectly funding Russia or keep growing up Myanmar Junta's dictatorship???
