STATEMENT
ANTONY J. BLINKEN, SECRETARY OF STATE
JANUARY 3, 2022
On
behalf of the United States of America, I extend my support for the people of
Burma as they celebrate their Independence Day on January 4.
We honor the
people of Burma who are striving to restore an inclusive path to democracy,
respect for human rights, and the rule of law for all people in the
country. The United States remains committed to the people of Burma, who
will not give up hope for a better future, even as they suffer horrific abuses
by the regime. We reiterate our call for the military regime to cease
immediately the use of violence, release all those unjustly detained, and
return Burma’s path to a genuine and inclusive democracy.
