NUG could strengthen ties with the international community
Aung Myo Min, Human Rights Minister of the National Unity Government (NUG), and Deputy Foreign Minister Moe Zaw Oo visited the United States for more than two weeks from April 3 to 17. He met with the US Ambassador to Congress and the United Nations.
“The United States is committed to working with the United Nations Security Council to resolve this issue,” he said. NUG၊ NUCC We have called for legislation that includes programs that directly assist ethnic groups, including the CRPH. ”
The meeting focused on increasing humanitarian assistance; Education Health and direct assistance across the border were discussed.
He also said that negotiations were underway to take legal action against those who committed crimes against the military council.
During the visit, NUG Human Rights Minister Aung Myo Min said he called for further diplomatic relations between the US government and NUG.
“During this time, we have met with those responsible for the US government and we are the only ones who can do this. We are the only legitimate government. We urge you to contact us and make a recognition. The US government is committed to stepping up diplomatic cooperation. We need more help in our country. NUG and NUCC; We have called for legislation that includes programs that directly assist ethnic groups, including the CRPH. ”

Derek Chollet, State Department Advisor; Democracy Assistant Secretary of State for Human Rights and Labor Lisa Peterson; Jessica Stern, Special Representative for LGBT people; He also met with US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield.
During the visit, they discussed the recognition of the NUG as a legitimate government. Moe Zaw Oo, the deputy secretary of the National Unity Government (NUG), said that although it was difficult for a government to recognize the NUG as a government, it had received a response from US government and congressional officials that it would provide engagement and support.
“Only the state is recognized,” he said. There are reactions that do not recognize the government. He said it was difficult to give it in public. At the same time, what about our government? They have full support for the uprising. Interaction with us that will lead to recognition; Support us; They will take care of all these things. In other words, it indirectly endorses us. ”
Domestic political analysts believe that NUG’s visit to the United States will have a positive effect on the revolution.
Ye Tun, a political analyst, believes that humanitarian aid could be accessed and that public support for the NUG could be strengthened.
“The first direct effect is to provide assistance for the livelihoods and health of the displaced people,” he said. It can be a little more comfortable. This is a direct effect. An organization that claims to have an indirect effect of doing so will gain the trust of the people. So Nasaka did it. If it happens through Nasaka, Nasaka has that influence. You have to have dignity. If NUG does it, NUG will have that influence. We have to gain the trust of the people. ”

Although the NUG could not be declared a legitimate government by the United States, there are those who believe that more effective economic sanctions on the military council could lead to more European action and benefit the revolution.
“The US government is not in a position to take up arms,” he said. Human Rights Minister Aung Myo Min and Deputy Foreign Minister Moe Zaw Oo are also in attendance. When they meet with the parliament, they are discussing how to help within the legal framework. Are there any sanctions in doing so? What can be done about the black money of the military council? “I believe our revolution will be the closest thing to success if Europe and its allies join hands, starting with the United States.”
This is the United States. I heard the views of Nay Tin Myint, who lives in New York City. Analysts say that the weapons used by the PDF forces in the current battles are more advanced than before, which could be seen as a sign of a stronger international connection to the NUG.
NUG’s Defense Minister Ye Mon told RFA that governments that do not embrace injustice will become more supportive of the NUG.
“NUG is a people’s will formed based on the 2020 election,” he said. The international community knows that it is a legitimate government that represents the people and is still well received by the people. I do not do injustice here. I do not justify my actions. “I think international governments, which know that legitimacy and the will of the people should be respected, will increasingly support the NUG.”
Burmese nationals living in the United States staged a protest in front of the White House on April 16 calling on the United States to recognize the federal government as a legitimate government.
International recognition is crucial to the success of the revolution. Union Prime Minister Man Win Khaing Than told a session of the Pyidaungsu Hluttaw on April 18 that the French parliament has decided to officially recognize it.
