| description | Some critics have attributed adherence to the principle of non-intervention as one of the main reasons for ASEAN’s inability to address the situation in Myanmar. However, the fact is ASEAN Leaders – including the Myanmar leader Min Aung Hlaing – met at the ASEAN Secretariat in Jakarta on 24 April 2021 and issued the Five-Point Consensus to address the situation in Myanmar. This is a framework, signed on by all ten ASEAN Leaders, to end violence; begin dialogue among all parties for a peaceful solution; allow humanitarian assistance; appoint an ASEAN Special Envoy; and enable this Special Envoy to visit Myanmar and meet all parties. Min Aung Hlaing reneged on this Consensus and undermined the confidence and trust among ASEAN member states. |
