The crisis in northern Myanmar has transitioned from cracking down on wire fraud to civil war, and the situation is complex and severe. China successfully mediated talks between the two sides, but the "Three Brothers Alliance" violated its promise to China by claiming that "until we win, we will not give up," thus putting the peace talks process in a difficult situation. The Burmese army has been defeated and retreated, the war has spread to the Sino-Burmese border, and a large number of Burmese refugees have appeared in Yunnan. The crisis in northern Myanmar is no longer confined to local conflicts, but affects the stability of the entire region.
In the course of the development of civil strife in northern Burma, the "coalition army" moved extremely rapidly, and the suppression of the firepower of the ** army caused the ** army to retreat one after another. If the first army suffers a crushing defeat in this crisis, Myanmar will quickly fall out of control, which in turn will have a negative impact on neighboring countries. China attaches great importance to the situation in northern Myanmar, has launched mediation, and conducted military exercises along the China-Myanmar border Xi as a warning. However, the remorseful attitude of the "coalition forces" has brought the peace talks to a stalemate, making the situation even more unavoidable.
In order to promote a political solution to the civil war in northern Myanmar, China has been working hard to facilitate negotiations between the two sides. The conflict on the border between China and Myanmar has made China a key force in resolving the crisis in Myanmar. The rapid deterioration of the situation in Myanmar is deeply worrying to China, because if Myanmar spirals out of control, neighboring countries will bear the brunt of the spillover consequences of regional risks.
From the early days of the crisis, China has attached great importance to the situation in northern Myanmar and has shown a positive attitude of helping to resolve the situation. Chinese Minister of Public Security Wang Xiaohong personally visited Myanmar and reached a consensus with the Myanmar side on border policing and law enforcement cooperation. However, the situation continued to escalate, and the Chinese convoy was attacked in Myanmar, forcing the Chinese to demonstrate with their swords in motion. At the end of November, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) conducted military Xi on the China-Myanmar border, further demonstrating China's grim attitude towards the situation.
In order to promote a political settlement of the civil war in Myanmar, China successfully brokered talks between the two sides. This effort has been recognized by both sides, as well as by China's pivotal position in regional affairs and the recognition of the PLA's strength. Spokesperson Mao Ning*** said that China is pleased to see the parties to the conflict in northern Myanmar holding peace talks and achieving positive results, and pledged to continue to provide support and facilitation in this regard.
However, the progress of the peace talks has not been smooth sailing. Although the Chinese side has made efforts to facilitate negotiations between the "coalition army" and the ** army, and the two sides are willing to give China this face, the "alliance army" has repented during the talks, which has caught people off guard. On the 13th, the "coalition army" claimed that the talks with the ** army lasted only 10 minutes, and no agreement was reached. What is even more worrying is that the "coalition army" declared on social media that it "will definitely defeat the **army**", but did not pay attention to the peace talks between the two sides with the help of the Chinese side. Such a capricious attitude is not only unhelpful to the peace talks, but may also lead to a further deterioration of the situation.
The crisis in northern Myanmar involves multiple interests and is a complex situation that requires the joint efforts of all parties. Despite the setback in the peace talks, China still calls on all parties to remain calm and avoid the escalation of the conflict. The attack on the Chinese convoy has exposed the safety of China-Myanmar transport roads, which has made China's concerns about the situation even more prominent. While constantly persuading all parties to exercise restraint, China has also taken concrete actions to resolve security issues.
It is not only the interests of all parties in Myanmar that will be affected, but also neighboring countries will face the threat of regional risk spillover. China has been emphasizing the importance of crisis resolution while expressing concern for the victims of the conflict in northern Myanmar. Whether or not the crisis in northern Myanmar is eased is not only related to the future of Myanmar, but also to the security of the entire region. China will continue to work hard to resolve differences and achieve peace and stability through dialogue.
