About this sermon
Secretary of State Antony Blinken has declared Myanmar's violence against Rohingya Muslims a genocide. The military in Myanmar, also known as Burma, are accused of torturing, raping and killing Rohingya Muslims. Today, Secretary Blinken highlighted reports and research that verified those atrocities. Director of the Religious Freedom Institute's South and Southeast Asia Action Team, Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute and Professor at Baylor University, Paul Marshall shares what the designation means and what type of implications it could have for Myanmar's government, which has been in the hands of the military since 2021. Marshall discusses why he thinks it took so long for the US to declare the atrocities committed against the Rohingya Muslims a genocide. He tells us about the Rohingya Muslims and whether the violence against them has affected other religious groups in the country. The senior fellow and professor explains what he would like to see happen following the genocide declaration. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
