On October 27, the Kokang Alliance, along with other armed groups, launched an operation under the banner of "combating telecom fraud", a move that attracted widespread attention. However, their real purpose is not to crack down on telecom fraud, but to overthrow the military ** division of territory. The Kokang Alliance is adept at seizing the current situation, and their actions coincide with the joint efforts of China, Myanmar and Thailand to combat wire fraud. However, the downside of the situation in Myanmar is that not only has the Kokang region been attacked by coalition forces, but other ethnic groups have also been fighting in other places. While civil wars and warlord divisions have long been the norm in Myanmar, armed groups like the Kokang Alliance are at best seeking to carve out their own turf. However, in the current situation, Myanmar faces an even bigger danger, that is, the People's Defence Forces (YPF) of Aung San Suu Kyi, Myanmar's former State Counsellor, have also taken active action and claimed to attack Naypyidaw. This is undoubtedly the biggest threat to the military. The military ** came to power through a coup d'état, and so far there has been no real political transformation. Nowadays, many armed groups have begun to act in conjunction with the People's Protection Forces in an attempt to overthrow the army, which can be said to be cornered. What is even more serious is that, unlike in the past, the intervention of external forces in the situation in Myanmar is very prominent. Recently, Indian experts have even suggested engaging with various armed groups as a way to counter China's influence, suggesting that India wants to bet on the side of the opposition. In addition, the United States stands behind Aung San Suu Kyi, and the actions of the People's Defence Forces are estimated to have more or less the shadow of the United States. If Myanmar becomes a U.S. military base and stronghold in the Indo-Pacific region, the consequences are dire. In addition, Russia did not miss the opportunity to enter the game, and launched a rare joint military exercise with Myanmar in November Xi. Not long ago, Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Patrushev also visited Myanmar and held discussions with military leader Min Aung Hlaing on the issue of cooperation in the field of security. Unlike India, Russia is clearly betting on the military, hoping to find an outlet to the Indo-Pacific region in Myanmar.

Faced with such a situation, the Myanmar army hopes that China can lend a hand. Recently, Myanmar's Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Dansui visited China and made it clear in his statement that China is Myanmar's most important neighbor and hopes to receive China's support and help to achieve peace and stability in the country. They pledged to resolutely crack down on cross-border illegal and criminal activities, such as telecom fraud, and hoped to carry out comprehensive coordination and cooperation with China. China hopes to get such a promise, and at the same time, it also expects the Myanmar military to stop the loss in time and realize that it has lost its way. If the Burmese civil war and the intervention of major powers continue to spread, it will be a huge test for China's border security. The border between China and Myanmar is more than 2,000 kilometers long, and a chaotic situation in Myanmar is not good for China's security interests. Therefore, China has chosen to step up and lend a helping hand. According to Reuters, the Myanmar military revealed that it is meeting with representatives of local armed forces with the assistance of China and expects to meet again at the end of this month with the aim of finding a political solution to the conflict.

In light of the current situation in Myanmar, the actions of the Kokang Allied Army, along with other armed groups, are at the forefront of attention. In the name of cracking down on telecommunications fraud, they tried to overturn the territorial division of the military, and successfully seized the opportunity of the joint crackdown on telecommunications fraud between China, Myanmar and Thailand. However, the Myanmar Army's predicament is not limited to the Kokang Alliance's strikes, and the rise of the People's Defence Forces (YPF) also poses a serious threat to the Army. In addition, the involvement of external powers has also created uncertainty in the situation. India is trying to counter China's influence over Myanmar, while the United States and Russia are actively involved in trying to compete for their own interests in the region. In the face of such a complex situation, the military hopes to receive China's support and assistance in order to achieve stability and security at home. As Myanmar's most important neighbor, China is vital to Myanmar's stability, but it also needs to be vigilant against border security risks. Therefore, China has opted to step in and meet with representatives of Myanmar** and local armed forces to find a political solution to the conflict. For China, maintaining stability on its borders is crucial, and through such assistance, China can play an active role in Myanmar.

Personal opinion: The escalating situation in Myanmar poses a threat to the stability of the region and China's border security. In international relations, the intervention of the major powers has also increased the complexity of the situation, making it more uncertain. As China's neighbor, Myanmar's stability has an important impact on China's border security. Therefore, China has chosen to step in and cooperate with Myanmar** with the aim of achieving a political solution to the conflict and maintaining stability on the border. At the same time, affected by the international situation, China is also playing a more active role and becoming one of the important defenders of regional security and stability. We hope that all parties will resolve conflicts through dialogue and consultation in accordance with the principles of peace, cooperation and win-win results, and make more contributions to regional peace and stability. This is of great significance to peace and development in Asia as a whole and in the whole world.
