Myanmar junta 'can't last forever': military in 'worse position now' than ever before

Catherine Viette welcomes Kim Aris, son of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, who bears witness to the fraught political landscape of Myanmar five years after the 2021 military coup. Mr. Aris sounds the alarm on the deteriorating condition of his ailing mother who remains imprisoned and whose whereabouts are unknown. He offers a scathing critique of the "sham election" as the people of Myanmar struggle for a return to democracy. His testimony exposes the contradictions between the junta’s claims of stability and legitimacy and the civilians on-going resistance to brutal oppression, political violence and civil conflict.
