Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

The Myanmar Directorate of Defense Procurement is a department under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense (MoD) which also acts as a Myanmar entity in charge of arms and military equipment procurement for the Myanmar Armed Forces (Tatmadaw). The Directorate of Defense Procurement falls under the authority of the Commander- in-chief of the Tatmadaw, Senior-General Min Aung Hlaing, and is therefore linked to several EU-listed individuals and entities, including Senior-General Min Aung Hlaing.

Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes,

As such, the Directorate of Defense Procurement is organically under the control of the Myanmar Armed Forces including since the 1 Feb 2021 coup. It enables the Myanmar military to carry out violence against Myanmar civilians and therefore plays a key role in fuelling the spiral of violence that has engulfed Myanmar/Burma since the coup.

EU Financial Sanctions Files (FSF),

Personnes associées: commandant en chef des forces armées du Myanmar, généralissime Min Aung Hlaing; Général de corps d’armée Thein Htay; Ministre de la défense, général Mya Htun Oo - Autres entités associées: ministère de la défense du Myanmar - La direction des acquisitions de défense du Myanmar est un service qui relève du ministère de la défense et qui est également l’entité du Myanmar chargée de l’acquisition d’armes et d’équipements militaires destinés aux forces armées du Myanmar (Tatmadaw). La direction des acquisitions de défense relève de l’autorité du commandant en chef de la Tatmadaw, le généralissime Min Aung Hlaing, et est donc liée à plusieurs personnes et entités inscrites sur la liste de l’UE, dont le généralissime Min Aung Hlaing. À ce titre, la direction des acquisitions de défense est placée organiquement sous le contrôle des forces armées du Myanmar, y compris depuis le coup d’État du 1er février 2021. Elle permet à l’armée du Myanmar de commettre des violences à l’encontre des civils du pays et joue donc un rôle essentiel pour alimenter la spirale de violence dans laquelle le Myanmar/la Birmanie est plongé depuis le coup d’État.
