Implications of the ICC’s Arrest Warrant for Myanmar’s Leader

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Myanmar’s military leader, Min Aung Hlaing, is facing charges of committing crimes against humanity for the killing and persecution of Rohingya Muslims. The crimes, which affected more than a million people in Myanmar, took place between August and December 2017. During this period, the Myanmar military launched an operation called “clearance” under the pretext of fighting armed groups that led to the genocide of Muslims in Rakhine State in western Myanmar. This operation was accompanied by the widespread killing of more than 200,000 Rohingya Muslims and the displacement of about 700,000 people. The International Criminal Court has identified these actions as examples of genocide and crimes against humanity.

Ukrainian War and the Widening East-West Divide

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: A proxy war is when two countries fight each other indirectly by supporting the warring parties. Classic examples from the Cold War era include the Congo crisis in the 1960s and the Angola crisis in the 1970s when the Soviet Union and the United States supported each of the warring sides in a civil war with money, weapons, and sometimes soldiers, but never directly engaged in the war themselves.

Shortly afterwards, the then Emperor of Japan announced in a speech that he had made unconditional peace with the Allies in order to protect the people of his country and thereby stop the greatest crime against humanity.
