The Burma Campaign called on Airbus in a press release on 27 January to force AVIC to choose business with Airbus or Myanmar’s brutal military dictatorship.
The text of the press release is as follows.
Burma Campaign UK is asking supporters to write to Airbus Chief Executive Officer Guillaume Faury, calling on him to deliver an ultimatum to the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) that they stop arming the Burmese military, or Airbus will end all business relationships with the company.
AVIC sold up to 8 new aircraft to the Burmese military in the last year alone, knowing full well they will be used to kill civilians. Deliberate attacks on civilian targets break international law.
