North East India rebel groups and tribals played a big role. I know India and adani supported the junta. Tribals are not against GOI but in Myanmar they are different interests. Either way both serve India's interest. There has been some friction with the some group of BJP government in the region but BJP allies weren't on the same path on this issues. No talking from both sides just actions but you can read between the lines of you read carefully.

[@FellaHAILIRA]

​@@HungLingLim They are technically rebels. We are bordered to Myanmar so I know bits and bits. The biggest problem will arise after the war is won. Unless big efforts are made into rehabilitating the rebel (these regions have one of the oldest political insurgencies in the world) and they are equally inducted in the formation of the government under a new power sharing system with some form of special autonomy. It can lead to the continuation of insurgency problems in the region, requiring the state to have a strong military to counter them and thereby repeating the history.

They offered us snacks and packets of this and that. We offered money in exchange but they would more often than not flatly refuse and tell us we were "Honored guests". I was stunned.

[@Little_Julia-]

As a Myanmar Citizen, I really happy for this situation.When Myanmar was ruled by the Japanese, the country gained its independence because all the armed forces organized and resisted the Japanese. The reason for the civil war is that there was no open principle among the leaders of the armed resistance forces from the beginning. My concern is that even in the current situation, I hope there is openness among the leaders, I hope they have plans for the future that everyone can accept. When there is a common enemy, everyone organizes and attacks. When the common enemy disappears, they attack each other again.

I hope the situation gets better. I have friend in Myanmar who is affected by this. Here's hoping for a change. Sending love to Myanmar

Rohinga Genocide happened when Myanmar was a democracy.

Peace and freedom 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

EU used to say Russia is losing on the battlefield as well. But the opposite is true.

[@carstenwagner3355]

I think the military of the junta will have a hard time battleing the different rebel forces. Because this military has "specialized" in subjugating the civilian population, and not fighting against military forces. The army of Myanmar seems to be more like thugs in uniform and not a real army.

[@gustavovelasquez462]

Keep fighting for freedom!!! The world is with you!

[@tamobiswas6083]

This is not French Rovolution. This will lead to anarchy. Which is also not a very good situation.

[@VTh-f5x]

The rebels run narco states. They are similar to mexican cartels.

[@lepsena8089]

What exactly are you trying to say? Anarchism began with the French revolution!

[@nateghast6456]

That is far from certain.

Good luck Myanmar! Love from Australia! Long live democracy.

Ang sang suki defended the genocide her barma kin did to the Rohinga in the world stage. the ones fighting now are ethnic groups who know the moment they drop thier weapons they become the next Rohinga

It's a shame none of Myanmar's neighbors have recognized the democratic alliance as the legitimate government, much less taken a stand for the democratic alliance with materiel contributions.

[@mcbchannel7173]

if what you mean by Myanmar’s neighbors are ASEAN countries then you need to understand that in one of ASEAN treaty said that no ASEAN countries should interfere with each other’s political situation no matter what happens because ASEAN is only focusing on economy, culture, health, education, and defense. also, by letting those people fight for their own freedom they will be stronger than being helped by their neighbors.

[@phyohtet5777]

@@mcbchannel7173 then the ASEAN should not recognzie Military junta and initiate conversations with National Unity Governemnt which is the real legimate governement. But they refused to talk with NUG and instead talk with Military juntas. Isn't that a way of interfering in our political situation?

[@zurielsss]

@@phyohtet5777have you looked at the ASEAN countries at all? No of them are genuine democracies😂 Why would they support democratically elected groups who are already a govt in exile?

[@exelenxius5832]

​​@@zurielsssThat is a bold assumption, Singapore, Indonesia, and Phillipine is a democratic republic while Malaysia and Thailand is constitutional monarchy. Vietnam also has a one party state democracy, but i guess you would consider that not a real democracy

Don't be deceived Ethnic groups that have suffered at the hands of the Burma people are the ones doing the fighting to cleanse thier lands of wicked barma oppression. they are not fighting for democracy

imagine the army deposes the ccp in china and ethnic minorities start to fight and defeat the PLA in thier areas. this is exactly what is going on in Myanmar now.

Incredible! I'll come visit next year if all is good :) you for Myanmar, best country in Asia for sure !

[@moethanttin3450]

Actually, the term "Rebels" are not suitable. In stead of it, should use "revolutionary force". Myanmar Junta has been making the brutal ruling all over the country by bombing the rural areas, apprehending and violating the people especially the youths. We, Myanmar People, are motivating with revolutionary forces and keen to end this dictatorship. Also, Thanks a lot to DW channel for highlight the news in Myanmar.

[@davidbatin1699]

A smart & strong leader will realize & change course for a better system of governing for it's country if the current system is not working for years. But the leader of Mysnmar is not such a man of intelligence or educated enough to realize the reality of the situation. The military is only there to protect it's leaders & their immediate famalies & not to protect & defend the country from foreign and domestic threats.

[@minzaw24mt]

Thanks to DW News for sharing this cause alot of outside world don't know what's going on in Myanmar.

[@ladymorwendaebrethil-feani4031]

This demonstrates that when ethnic and religious groups put their differences aside and come together in a coalition for universalist principles (democracy, freedom and equality), it is possible to defeat any dictatorship. However, if they had fallen into sectarianism, these victories would have been impossible.

[@ronkledonkanusmoncher564]

So little known but the violence happening in Myanmar is staggering
