The situation in northern Myanmar has changed dramatically in recent daysAccording to the Chinese Overseas Chinese Network, the Chinese newspaper "Golden Phoenix" showed that the local Shan State Reconstruction Committee (RCSS) and the Shan State Progressive Party (SSPP) announced a ceasefire on behalf of the Southern Shan State Army and the Northern Shan State Army respectively. The two different armed forces have been fighting each other for a long time, and the recent escalation of fighting in northern Myanmar has forced them to finally decide to listen to the voices of the people and monks and negotiate a ceasefire.
However, the ceasefire did not affect the progress of the Kokang fighting as planned. Forces such as the Kokang Allied Army, the De'ang National Liberation Army and the Arakan Army are also conducting Operation October, directing the fighting beyond Kokang Lao Cai. The situation has entered a critical turning point, and the Kokang coalition forces are likely to launch a general offensive against Lao Cai after gradually occupying the outer positions of Lao Cai. The situation of the Burmese army and the "four major families" in northern Myanmar is precarious, with the loss of nearly 300 strongholds of the Burmese army, the seizure of more than 10 cities and towns by the coalition forces, and even the loss of control of the China-Myanmar ** channel, which makes the situation even worse.
Although the Tatmadaw army launched a counterattack and launched onslaught in Bauddo in western Myanmar and Loikaw City in Kayah State, the overall situation remains complicated. There are even fears that the situation in Myanmar could deteriorate further with the Kokang Allied Army's offensive.
The situation in Myanmar has aroused great concern in China. China has repeatedly called on all parties to cease fire and ensure stability on the China-Myanmar border. The PLA's Southern Theater troops even held large-scale combat exercises on the China-Myanmar border, sending a strong signal to all parties to the conflict. China's Ministry of National Defense made it clear at a regular press conference that the squadron is on high alert and can respond to emergencies at any time.
China has made its attitude clear, and all parties to the conflict in northern Myanmar must understand China's intentions. The escalation of the situation in northern Myanmar has had an impact on China's interests, especially the close ties between the China-Myanmar corridor. China attaches great importance to China-Myanmar relations, and Myanmar needs to pay attention to China's demands and respect China's position.
The situation in northern Myanmar is changing dramatically, and the news of the ceasefire between the two armed forces is of far-reaching significance.
