The 47-member Geneva forum adopted a resolution brought by Britain and the European Union (EU) unanimously without a vote, although Russia and China said afterwards that they "disassociated" themselves from the consensus.
The top United Nations human rights body called on Myanmar on Friday to release Aung San Suu Kyi and other officials and to refrain from using violence on people protesting against the military coup.
The 47-member Geneva forum adopted a resolution brought by Britain and the European Union (EU) unanimously without a vote, although Russia and China said afterwards that they "disassociated" themselves from the consensus.
Myanmar's envoy said before the vote that the resolution was "not acceptable".
“We are clear in this resolution, that this stage of emergency must be lifted immediately, that all those detained arbitrarily must be immediately released and all effort towards dialogue and reconciliation must be pursued”, UK ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, Julian Braithwaite said.
