Incident timely trumped up to intensifyinternational pressure
on Myanmar by internal and external anti-government elements
FM U Nyan Windiscusses recent developments in Myanmar with
Japanese counterpart
NAY PYI TAW, 21 May ??Minister for Foreign Affairs of Japan
Mr. Hirofumi Nakasonemade a telephone call to U Nyan Win,
Minister for Foreign Affairs of Myanmar, at 2.45 p.m. on 18
May,2009 and they had friendly discussions on the recent
developments in Myanmar.
Japanese Foreign Minister expressed his concerns about the
recent lawsuit against Daw Aung San Suu Kyi. He was also
concerned that the action taken by the Myanmar government
might affect the views of the international community on
Myanmar as well as the successful holding of the general
elections in 2010. As he learnt about the recent illness of
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, he urged to give humanitarian
consideration in this respect. Although the issue is domestic
legal process of Myanmar, he requested the Myanmar government
to find an appropriate way in solving the issue taking into
consideration the views of the internationalcommunity.
Moreover, as Myanmar is now at a critical juncture in its
democratization process, he was hoping that it will be
advanced into a process which could be given high regard by
the international community.
Minister U Nyan Win responded that the incident involving
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and an American citizen could possibly
be created by the other side and not by the Myanmar government.
This incident will proceed fairly according to the law.
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi was also given the right to defend her
case in consulting with her lawyers. The American citizen was
also allowed to get lawyers and granted consular access
according to the Vienna Convention. He had no idea what
kind of legal action would be taken against Daw Aung San
Suu Kyi. The court will decide according to the law. Both
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and the American citizen are in good
health. Well-qualified doctors and specialists are assigned
to attend to their medical needs. Myanmar is trying to build
improved relationship with countries all over the world
including US, Japan and European nations. Minister U Nyan Win
expressed his opinion that, at a time when US,Japan and
European nations are reviewing their policies on Myanmar,
it was likely that this incident was timely trumped up,
to intensify international pressure on Myanmar, by internal
and external anti-government elements who do not wish to see
the positive changes in those countries'policies towards Myanmar.
