Manage episode 294221359 series 2664773
Kyaw Moe Tun is Myanmar's permanent representative to the UN who spoke out against the military takeover in his country in February 2021. It was a moving speech, he was choking back tears by the end and finished with the three fingered Mockingjay salute of the Burmese democracy movement.
In this episode, Tony talks to a Burmese woman in exile from her country, someone who was there for the terrible events of February 1st, but who has since left Myanmar. 'Andrea' talks about the UN speech, what it meant in terms of hope and inspiration, as well as discussing the coup in a broader context.
