Myanmar crisis deepens as global focus fades

A senior United Nations monitor who has authored multiple reports on Myanmar since a 2021 military coup upended its fragile democracy is warning the country is sinking deeper into crisis. Tom Andrews served as Special Rapporteur on Myanmar for six years and finished up in the post in April. He now holds the same position covering Cambodia but says he wishes he could have done more for the people of Myanmar. In a frank interview with NHK World, Andrews details a nation in despair as attacks on civilians increase and the international community turns its attention to other global conflicts.
