"H.E. Dr. Sasa, Union Minister of the Ministry of International Cooperation, Spokesperson of the National Unity Government of Myanmar, and former Myanmar Special Envoy to the United Nations addressed the Parliamentarians of the French Republic at the hearing on the Myanmar crisis organized by the French National Assembly Foreign Affairs Committee. 23 June 2021 Bonjour! Dear Mr. Chairman and respected members of the French National Assembly, members of the France Parliament, on behalf of myself and on the behalf of the people of Myanmar, I wanted to say thank you to you for giving me this opportunity to represent the people of Myanmar. The brave people and the National Unity Government of Myanmar greatly appreciate the People, Parliament and Government of the French Republic for standing with us at this critical moment in our history. This is the darkest of hours and the most pivotal moment in the history of Myanmar. While the fate and future of Myanmar hangs in the balance, the strong and continued support from the people, Parliamentarians, and Government of France and its international alliance are absolutely crucial in stopping this reign of terror. More so than ever, the 54 million courageous citizens of Myanmar need the continued strong friendship, coordinated support and recognition from the people, Parliamentarians and Government of France in fulfilling the hopes, aspirations, and dreams of those who have suffered so much for far too long under the hands of the brutal and cruel military generals and their regime..."
