ミャンマー国軍を非難　民主体制の回復要求―衆院決議

　衆院は８日の本会議で、ミャンマー国軍による軍事クーデターを「民主化への努力と期待を踏みにじる」と厳しく非難し、民主的な政治体制の早期回復を求める決議を賛成多数で採択した。
　決議は「現体制の正当性は全く認められない」とした上で、暴力で多数の民間人が死傷していると指摘。「本院はミャンマー国民と共にある」と表明し、残虐行為の即時停止やアウン・サン・スー・チー氏らの即時解放を要求した。日本政府に対しては、これらの速やかな実現に全力を尽くすよう要請した。（2021/06/08-17:30）

Japan's House of Representatives on Tuesday adopted a resolution condemning the military coup in Myanmar earlier this year for trampling on efforts and hopes for democracy in the Southeast Asian country.
   The resolution, adopted by a majority vote in the Lower House, demanded early restoration of a democratic regime in Myanmar.
   It expressed the chamber's solidarity with the people of Myanmar, arguing that the junta has no legitimacy and pointing out that its violence has caused many civilian casualties.
   The Lower House called on the Myanmarese military immediately to stop atrocities and free democratic leader Aung San Suu Kyi and others, while urging the Japanese government to make every effort to realize these demands.
   Meanwhile, a parliamentary resolution against China's alleged human rights abuse now seems unlikely to be adopted during the ongoing ordinary session, due to the negative stance of Komeito, the junior member of the ruling coalition. Komeito emphasizes bilateral relations with China.
