| British Prime Minister Gordon Brown called for a UN Security Council meeting on Myanmar on Wednesday, vowing there would be “no impunity” for human rights violators in the country. “I hope the Security Council will meet immediately, meet today, and discuss this issue and look at what can be done. The first thing that should be done is the UN envoy should be sent to Burma (Myanmar),” Brown told reporters at a conference of Britain’s ruling Labour Party. “There will be no impunity in future for those who trample the human rights of the people of Burma.” “I think everybody knows now that the whole issue of sanctions is going to take on a new dimension,” he said. The European Union was going to look at “a whole range of sanctions that could be imposed”, he said. |
