UN official says Russia, China arming Myanmar with jets targeting civilians
A United Nations official said Russia and China have been giving weapons to Myanmar such as fighter jets that have been targeting civilians.
The discovery was made on Tuesday by Thomas Andrews, a U.N. human rights expert on Myanmar who is also a former Democratic U.S. congressman, Reuters reported.
In a report, Andrews said that Russia, China and Serbia have been giving weapons to Myanmar since the military coup last year with "full knowledge that they would be used to attack civilians."
The report states that China has given fighter jets to Myanmar. China's foreign ministry spokesperson, Wang Wenbin, dodged questions over the accusations at a press conference.
