Birmanie

Birmanie, also known as Myanmar, is currently in the process of selecting a new president. This follows legislative elections earlier in the year that were won by pro-military parties, a result widely condemned by the international community. The current head of the junta, General Min Aung Hlaing, who orchestrated the 2021 coup that ousted Aung San Suu Kyi's government, is reportedly seeking the presidency. This move is seen as an attempt to legitimize his rule following the coup and subsequent condemnation. The selection process, initiated on March 30th, is taking place amidst ongoing concerns about the legitimacy of the elections and the overall political situation in the country. The situation in Birmanie remains relevant due to its impact on regional stability and human rights concerns following the military coup.
