 Burma : Britain and France in favor of jawboning

Not long ago, the world watched the the represseion of demonstrators against the government of Burma and the diplomatic visits of the UN represenative to government leaders and the the head of the opposition. Lacerating editorials were published in the press and specialists hinted on the importance of reinforcing international sanctions against Burma.  And one article captioned, Burma : Time for serious dialogue by two participants of EU presidential summits, in the IHT of 1-2 december 2007,  is an illustration that France and Britain won't brook further disrespect of the rule of law in Burma.
