Myanmar Ambassador to London makes a statement after being locked out of the UK embassy.

Kyaw Zwar Minn, the nation’s ambassador to the UK since 2014, said he had been “betrayed” by colleagues who had backed the army.
He has publicly opposed the armed coup and has been officially recalled.
The ambassador said: “When I left the embassy, they stormed inside the embassy and took it. They are from the Myanmar military.
