Acknowledged
The UK has used both sanctions and a review of our trade and investment approach to ensure we are increasing pressure on Tatmadaw-linked businesses and individuals. We continue to engage with partners in the region to encourage responsible investment in Myanmar, and divestment from military-linked businesses and projects. The UK has no power to enforce sanctions extra-territorially where there is no UK nexus. Government Response: The UK Government’s Response to the Myanmar Crisis 7
