Also, dozens of journalists and activists have marched in Yangon in support of the men. The ambassadors from the U.S. and U.K. have spoken out. The U.S. ambassador to Myanmar said the decision was “deeply troubling”, and Dan Chugg, Britain's ambassador, said he was “extremely disappointed” with the verdict against the two journalists who have been imprisoned.
Have these demonstrations, with ambassadors speaking out, put more internal pressure on the Myanmar government, or have they been ignored?
