ASEAN denounces Myanmar's 'highly reprehensible' executions
ASEAN has rebuked Myanmar's junta over the execution of four political activists. The 10-member bloc says the executions are destructive to efforts to de-escalate crisis.
"The implementation of the death sentences just a week before the 55th ASEAN ministerial meeting is highly reprehensible," says Cambodia, this year's ASEAN chair.
Malaysia's Foreign Minister called for Myanmar to be barred from attending international ministerial level meetings.
The men were executed for aiding "terror acts" by a civilian resistance movement.
A junta spokesperson says the executed prisoners deserved "many death sentences".
