EU is pushing for prosecution for crimes against humanity against Myanmar’s Rohingya population
The EU is pushing for a resolution at the U.N. Human Rights Council to prosecute those responsible for crimes against humanity against Myanmar’s Rohingya population, according to a draft obtained by POLITICO.
The push from the EU during the course of a two-week session that finishes on September 28 comes after an independent fact-finding mission to Myanmar last month found evidence of “genocidal intent” of the minority Muslim population in Rakhine State and recommended the commander-in-chief and other generals in the Myanmar military should be brought to justice.
