Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that the United Nations Security Council should immediately impose an arms embargo against the military of Burma.
HRES 106 is a non-binding resolution calling on the United Nations Security Council to immediately impose an arms embargo on Burma’s military (the Tatmadaw). It directly targets the military junta responsible for the 2021 coup, ongoing human rights abuses, and violence against civilians, including ethnic minorities like the Rohingya. The resolution specifies that lifting the embargo would require the military to end violence, release detained leaders, allow humanitarian access, restore internet, and transition power to a civilian government. It also urges the international community to support affected civilians and promote peace dialogues. This resolution expresses congressional support for UN action but does not create new U.S. policy.
