Myanmar executions: US presses China to rein in junta, saying it cannot be ‘business as usual’

The remarks came after China, a longtime ally of Myanmar’s military, refused to comment on the executions. Foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian said Beijing “always upholds the principle of non-interference in other countries’ internal affairs”.

The UN special rapporteur Thomas Andrews said he was “outraged and devastated” by the executions and called for a strong international response. “The widespread and systematic murders of protesters, indiscriminate attacks against entire villages, and now the execution of opposition leaders, demands an immediate and firm response by member states of the United Nations,” he said.

Myanmar expert Richard Horsey of the International Crisis Group said the executions were “an outrageous act. And one that will create political shock waves, now and for a long time to come”.
