Myanmar faces a pivotal week as ASEAN leaders debate post-coup diplomatic ties in Manila ahead of an International Court of Justice ruling on Rohingya genocide.
YANGON: Myanmar faces a pivotal week as neighbouring nations weigh the future of post-coup relations, while the United Nations’ top court threatens a verdict of genocide over its dark past.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) is scheduled on Thursday to rule whether Myanmar committed genocide against its marginalised Muslim Rohingya minority.
The case looms over a three-day meeting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) due to debate its policy freezing Myanmar out of summits since a 2021 putsch.
