Myanmar’s military government bloodshed down citizens during large-scale democratization protests in 1962 and 1988. On this day, New Zealand declared severance of relations with the Myanmar military, which took power through a coup, and banned dignitaries from entering the country. After the coup, countries condemned the military and urged state advisor Aung San Suu Kyi to lift the detention, but New Zealand is the first country to take practical steps in the field of diplomacy. According to Reuters, Prime Minister Jeokshinda Adan said at a press conference, “We suspend all forms of high-level contact with Myanmar. “Our strong message is to do what New Zealand can do.” He emphasized, “Efforts have been made to establish democracy in Myanmar over the past few years, but in recent days, everyone must have despaired because of the military situation,” he said. Prime Minister Aden said, “Out of the economic support of $30.5 million (about KRW 34.1 billion) to Myanmar, we will exclude all military-related companies and business areas that are controlled by the military. The entry of military personnel from Myanmar is also prohibited.” The Sankei Shimbun of Japan also reported that the Japanese government is considering suspending or reducing economic support to Myanmar.
Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahuta also said in a separate statement, “New Zealand does not recognize the legitimacy of the Myanmar government led by military forces. Immediately release all imprisoned politicians and restore democratic principles.”
