\”This year is shaping up to be a crucial one in Myanmar’s modern history as the country grapples with a civil war sparked by the military coup in 2021. The State Administration Council (SAC), as the military regime calls itself, is facing mounting defeats as opposition forces, including a coalition of ethnic armed groups and the National Unity Government (NUG) in exile, gain control over significant territories. The NUG, led by Acting President Duwa Lashi La, is focused on accelerating the revolution in 2025, with a strategic plan that includes military operations, diplomatic efforts, and governance in controlled areas. The goal is to eliminate the regime leader Min Aung Hlaing and bring an end to the atrocities faced by the people of Myanmar. The NUG is working towards a tipping point in 2025, with support from the international community to cut off the financial resources of the military regime. The NUG sees itself as the leader of the nationwide revolution, despite some reluctance from certain ethnic resistance organizations. The NUG is open to peace talks with the military, but has conditions that must be met, including accepting civilian rule and non-interference in politics. The NUG is working to build trust and collaboration with ethnic armed groups to strengthen the revolution and achieve peace in Myanmar.\”
