MPs pressure Morrison government to be tougher on Myanmar coup leaders

Committee of Liberal, Nationals, Labor and Greens MPs urge government to consider sanctions after hundreds of deaths in Myanmar

The Morrison government faces increased pressure from within its own ranks to expand sanctions against Myanmar’s military leaders and to offer permanent residency to citizens who wish to remain in Australia.

Myanmar security forces have killed hundreds of civilians amid protests in the wake of the 1 February coup but the Australian government has held off ratcheting up sanctions against the top generals, arguing the junta is largely resistant to international pressure.
