Myanmar’s Junta to Hold Elections in Three Phases, First Begins in December | Firstpost Spotlight

Myanmar is set to hold elections on December 28, nearly five years after the military seized power in a 2021 coup. The ruling junta projects the vote as a step toward stability, but large parts of the country remain excluded due to ongoing conflict. More than 50 parties are contesting, though most are seen as aligned with the military, limiting genuine political choice. Western governments and the United Nations reject the election as neither free nor fair, while China backs the process. Former leader Aung San Suu Kyi remains imprisoned, her party dissolved, as fighting and arrests continue nationwide.
