We urge G7 governments to:
1) Ensure that the junta does not gain legitimacy as the Government of Myanmar.
2) Enact and enforce targeted sanctions to cut off all revenue streams to the junta, including by targeting the Myanma Oil and Gas Enterprise (MOGE) and Myanma Foreign Trade Bank (MFTB), so that it cannot finance its air strikes against the Myanmar People.
3) Enact and enforce sanctions that target aviation fuel.
