President Biden: stop sales of jet fuel to Myanmar military
U.S. President Joe Biden
Tell President Biden: ban sales of aviation fuel to Myanmar
The Myanmar military is using its air force to indiscriminately bomb civilians.
Dozens of people have been killed. Homes, schools, hospitals and churches have been damaged or destroyed. The majority of the estimated 700,000 people who have been forced to flee their homes since the military coup last year have fled because of airstrikes or the threat of airstrikes.
Without aviation fuel the jets can’t fly. If they can’t fly, they can’t bomb.
Burmese civil society organizations have called for an embargo of jet fuel sales to Myanmar.
Sign the petition to demand that President Biden block sales of aviation fuel to the Myanmar military.
