Your Excellency,

I hope I am writing to you in good health and mind as I write this seeking urgent assistance and solidarity in a matter of upmost urgency.

As you may have heard by now, Thailand has, in a blatant violation of international law, deployed armed troops into Myanmar with the intention of destabilizing our nation. I do not have to point out what precedent this sets and you surely will not be surprised that the Myanmar military has captured and placed these Thai troops under arrest to secure the fragile stability currently standing in the nation. These troops will be placed before a court, will be judged, and will face justice for their crimes before being returned to Thailand.

However, Thailand and its government is attempting to use the arrest of these troops as a pretext to further escalate hostilities and potentially begin an invasion of our sovereign territory. Similar to how they've done when they invaded Cambodia under weak goals and when they attempted to annex the islands of Caledonia—one of your nation's territories—under a fake "humanitarian mission" not long ago. This is a grave and unjustifiable action, one that the free world cannot allow to transpire without protest.

It is therefore my hopes that you would have your government agree to cease all military cooperation and sale of military equipment to the nation of Thailand to diminish Thailand's aggressive actions against our innocent nation and any future state that they wish to turn into victims.

I look forward to your reply.

Kindest Regards,
Than Shwe
Chairman
Union of Myanmar
