Myanmar is a mess, right?

Yes, since Myanmar gained national independence, there have been many local armed forces of ethnic minorities.

From 65438 to 0948, since Myanmar gained national independence, there have been many local armed forces of ethnic minorities. Kachin Independence Army (KIA), founded on February 5, 196 1, is one of dozens of local armed forces of ethnic minorities, and it is also one of the more powerful forces. Although these people and the military have different demands, different historical lengths and different strengths, the same thing is that they are all separated in the border areas of Myanmar and have long confronted the central government, which has become a thorny issue for successive governments in Myanmar.

From Wu Nu government to Nyan Win government, the basic policy of Myanmar central government is to combat and eliminate the problem of civilian land and weapons. However, government forces have never been able to destroy these civilian weapons, and similarly, civilian weapons have never posed a major threat to the central government. Government forces can effectively reduce the living space of people, land and weapons between border areas and mountainous areas.

Information about the war in northern Myanmar:

1. With the war, by the end of 20 15, the federal government and the Kachin Independence Organization had held two rounds of peace talks in Ruili, China, with no significant results. Aung Min, Myanmar's minister in charge of peace talks, was optimistic that a peace agreement would be reached with the Kachin Independence Army by the end of 20 13.

2. The conflict may not be conducive to Myanmar's efforts to persuade European and American countries to lift sanctions against Myanmar. Both the European Union and the United States regard the peace agreement between the Myanmar government and ethnic armed groups as a prerequisite for lifting sanctions.

3. Myanmar government forces and Kachin Independence Army accused each other of taking military action first, which led to the escalation of the conflict. Myanmar's "New Light" published an article on the 3rd, accusing the Kachin Independence Army of constantly destroying road and railway transportation and attacking police posts, and said that the Burmese army did not take the initiative to launch attacks.
