Item 4: Interactive dialogue on the report of the High Commissioner on the situation of human rights in Myanmar

Thank you, Vice President, and Deputy High Commissioner.
Before delivering Japan’s statement, I would like to express our sincere condolences and sympathy to the people of Myanmar suffering the devastating consequences of Typhoon Yagi.
Japan remains seriously concerned about the continuing deterioration of the human rights situation in Myanmar and deplores the lack of concrete progress over the past three and a half years since the coup.
Japan strongly condemns the Myanmar military’s continued failure to try to resolve the situation by peaceful means, even as huma rights violations remain rife. These include the daily killing and wounding of many innocent civilians by air strikes and other acts of violence, while cases of arbitrary detention continue nationwide. Japan is seriously concerned about the introduction of conscription as well. We urge all stakeholders to refrain from violence and work together towards a peaceful resolution of the situation.
Japan once again strongly urges the Myanmar military to take concrete actions to (1) immediately stop the violence, (2) release detainees, and (3) swiftly restore Myanmar’s democratic political system.
It is crucial to improve the human rights and humanitarian situations in Myanmar in a manner that reflects the will of the people of Myanmar. To this end, Japan will continue to work closely with the international community, including ASEAN, and make every effort to improve the situation in Myanmar.
