Myanmar has been in turmoil since the military ousted Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy government, sparking huge democracy protests which have triggered a bloody crackdown from the junta. The junta has denied any involvement and chosen former soldier Aung Thurein as its envoy to the UN body. In August US prosecutors said they had charged two Myanmar citizens in a plot to attack him.
He made headlines shortly after the putsch by flashing the three-finger salute of democracy protesters from his UN chair, brazenly defying the junta’s insistence that he no longer represents the country.
The deferral leaves Kyaw Moe Tun, appointed by Aung San Suu Kyi’s government, in place as Myanmar’s envoy. ‘We will continue submitting to the UN as usual according to diplomatic procedure and the right to representation in accordance with international and local laws,’ he added. ‘This decision does not reflect the reality on the ground and existence of our country,’ Myanmar junta spokesman Zaw Min Tun said. The deferral keeps in place envoys appointed to the UN by former governments in both nations before they were toppled - by a coup in Myanmar in February and the Taliban’s takeover in Afghanistan in August. The committee responsible for approving nominations of ambassadors met Wednesday but deferred a decision over rival claims to the seats for both countries, diplomats said. Myanmar’s junta and the Taliban authorities of Afghanistan on Thursday slammed the United Nations for denying their chosen representatives seats at the world body.

#CHANNEL MYANMAR TV#
In 2012, after the completion of a new TV station in Naypyidaw, MWD launched six new digital channels and increased its broadcasting hours on its digital channels so as to better compete with other local television stations. This was later followed by YouTube which terminated their channel page along with MRTV for similar reason. In response to the coup, Facebook removed the page of the military-owned Myawaddy TV Network, for violating Facebook policy that prohibits organizations that promote hate speech or violence. It was used in 2021 to formally announce the military takeover of Myanmar. Its programming is also broadcast over the AsiaSat 2 satellite. Myawaddy TV was launched on the 27 March 1995, in commemoration of the Myanmar's Armed Forces Day.
