THE NNC has sought the intervention of the United Nations in ending what it termed as the genocide against the Nagas by the two Governments of Myanmar and India.
Pointing out that the present joint Military operation being carried out by the two Governments of India and Myanmar are totally inhuman and in complete violation of the international human rights, the NNC in no uncertain terms stated that the very intention of joint operations was to wipe out the Naga population in the free area (Region) and occupy the virgin land of the Nagas.
Vizosielhou Nagi General Secretary, Naga National Council in a press communiqué strongly condemned the Military Junta of Myanmar for what he termed as “the aggression and the brutality against the Nagas of Free Eastern Nagaland at the behest of the Government of India”.
“And their actions are totally criminal against the Nagas in particular and the humanity at large. The Naga people of free eastern Nagaland are free indeed and governed by themselves from time immemorial till date. And the land and the people never belong to Myanmar politically, socially, culturally, religiously, etc. till date.
The administration of the area is run by the Nagas and the free eastern people have never, never join the union of Myanmar till today and this very fact can be verified by the community of Nations and the United Nations in particular”, the NNC stated.
Pointing out that the Nagas have been fighting for the last 59 years for recognition as a sovereign nation and this fight will continue till political freedom is achieved, the NNC earnestly appealed to the international community and the United Nations in particular to immediately intervene in this matter of genocide against the Nagas by the two Governments.
“The NNC also appeal to the Naga people of the Western Nagaland, which is under the occupation of India, to pray and support the Nagas of Free Eastern Nagaland at this hour of intense hardship”.
