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. 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.

About these lists

EU Consolidated Financial Sanctions List (European Commission (DG FISMA)): Persons, groups and entities subject to EU financial sanctions, with legal acts. Official page.

Swiss SECO Sanctions List (State Secretariat for Economic Affairs SECO): Persons, entities and objects subject to Swiss sanctions under the Embargo Act. Official page.

Inclusion on a list is an administrative designation, not a criminal conviction. Designations can be challenged and are periodically reviewed; entries marked “no longer listed” have been removed from the respective list. The legal effect of a listing depends on the jurisdiction and the programme concerned.

Compiled automatically from official public sources. Name similarity is not identity; nothing here is a legal determination or allegation of wrongdoing. Verify against the linked official source before relying on any information.
