Washington: On Monday, the United States formally determined that Myanmar’s army committed genocide and crimes against humanity in its violence against the Rohingya minority. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken also warned that as long as the junta was in power nobody in the country would be safe. “Since the coup, we have seen the Burmese military use many of the same tactics. Only now the military is targeting anyone in Burma it sees as opposing or undermining its repressive rule,” Blinken said.
