The UK government on Thursday condemned the “bullying actions” of the Myanmar military junta after the country’s ambassador, Kyaw Zwar Minn, was refused entry to his own embassy in London and had to spend the night in his car. 

Zwar Minn has been critical of the junta’s coup in Myanmar, which has sparked widespread protests and clashes in the region since February, and called for Myanmar’s ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi to be released.
