The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) finally came out on Thursday to condemn the slaughter of as many as 130 people in an airstrike by Burmese Junta forces on a village in Myanmar’s Sagaing region this week. The attack killed dozens of civilians, including women and children. Indonesia, the 2023 holder of the Asean chair, issued the statement on the Southeast Asian bloc’s behalf two days after the United Nations and United States came out with statements deploring the attack. ASEAN is widely criticized for failing to take strong action against the Burmese junta.
