Myanmar Ambassador to UN: "We All Feel Helpless"
The U.N. is ringing alarm bells on Myanmar, as their special rapporteur for human rights says the junta’s brutal crackdown on peaceful protests are likely crimes against humanity. Indeed, the country’s own ambassador to the U.N. recently made an emotional speech against the military coup, asking the international community to provide security. He joins the program to explain why he's speaking out.
