  • Telegram: Monitored 24 Channels; identified 28 incidents of hate speech.
  • TikTok: Monitored 24 Accounts; identified 18 incidents of hate speech.

In July, ASEAN and neighbouring governments gave Myanmar’s illegal junta greater diplomatic access while its forces continued to attack civilians, imprison political opponents, obstruct aid, and exclude democratic representatives from decisions about the country’s future. ASEAN foreign ministers met the junta’s foreign minister at the ministerial level for the first time since the 2021 coup. Laos received Min Aung Hlaing with the protocol of a head of state, Thailand announced that it would host him in August, and Russia trained Myanmar military personnel in drone operations, helicopter deployments, sniping, communications, and other combat capabilities. These governments helped normalise and strengthen an illegal military regime responsible for mass atrocities, while excluding Myanmar’s democratic representatives and ignoring calls from civil society for accountability and an end to military rule.
 
The military also moved to consolidate the system it created through its fraudulent election. The military-controlled parliament rejected ASEAN’s Five-Point Consensus, extended martial law in 58 townships, considered further restrictions on political participation, and continued to use military-controlled courts to punish peaceful opposition. Activists who had called for an election boycott, an end to forced conscription, and the release of political prisoners received sentences of up to 37 years. The election did not transfer power to a civilian government. It gave the military new institutions through which to preserve its authority, exclude opponents, and claim international recognition.

In June 2026, the junta continued to seek recognition from foreign governments as it simultaneously carried out airstrikes on villages, displacement camps, and other civilian areas across the country. Min Aung Hlaing followed his late-May visit to India with a state visit to China, where China issued a joint statement endorsing Min Aung Hlaing and welcoming the military’s fraudulent elections, and the month closed with BIMSTEC moving to hand the junta a regional leadership role while Laos and Belarus deepened ties with the junta. Human rights organisations and parliamentarians pressed governments to reject the junta and pursue accountability for its crimes, as Fortify Rights urged the United Kingdom to lead an International Criminal Court referral under Article 14 of the Rome Statute and civil society lodged a complaint with Thailand’s national human rights commission over gas revenue reaching the military.
