Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Chapman of Darlington on 31 July (HL93), which countries they have sanctioned for providing arms to the Myanmar military.

Since the start of the coup, the UK has imposed sanctions on 25 individuals and 33 entities under the Myanmar Sanctions Regulations 2021. These sanctions include a number of Russian companies, involved in supplying equipment to the Myanmar armed forces. The UK has also sanctioned individuals and entities who have facilitated weapons and equipment to the Myanmar armed forces from Russia and Belarus. We continue to keep the use of sanctions under review to reduce the Myanmar military regime's access to finance, arms and equipment.
