(Reuters) – Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong said on Saturday the conflict in military-ruled Myanmar was worsening and her message to the ruling junta was the situation there was unsustainable and it should take a different path for the country and the people.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a series of regional summits in Laos, Wong said Australia was deeply concerned about the Myanmar conflict and backed a peace effort by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
