<p>The British Government played an instrumental role in securing the UN Human Rights
Council Resolution in March 2017 which established the Fact Finding Mission to assess
alleged human rights violations in Rakhine. We will now work to ensure the Mission
has a robust mandate and strong composition and will be urging the Burmese authorities
to cooperate fully with it.</p><p>The UK continues to seek an end to all violations
and to prevent an escalation in violence, including against Rohingya Muslims. Human
rights and democratic reform will remain at the heart of British policy towards Burma.
We are committed to being a vocal advocate for change in Burma and will continue to
press for action and to raise our concerns with the Burmese authorities.</p>
