Myanmar and Ukraine established diplomatic relations on 19 January 1999. Relations have been traditionally negative.
History
Ukraine voted to condemn the Burmese government in 2008.
Relations improved when the civilian government of Aung San Suu Kyi came to power. Ukraine even supplied weapons to the Tatmadaw, despite the condemnation by the West on the Rohingya crisis.
The UN General Assembly passed a resolution on June 18, 2021, urging the military of Myanmar to end violence, free political prisoners, and restore democracy after the country's coup. The UN members were urged to "prevent the flow of arms into Myanmar" by the resolution and Ukraine voted in favor of it.
Since the Russian Invasion of Ukraine
Relations grew hostile again following the Russian Invasion of Ukraine as Myanmar was among the handful of countries to back Russia.
In July 2023, Russian armed forces were spotted using 120mm mortar rounds which were manufactured by Myanmar. Sources in Myanmar's Junta confirmed to The Irrawaddy that mortar rounds manufactured by Myanmar's Directorate of Defence Industries were being used by Russia, and that the government is supplying mortar rounds to Russia.
