Myanmar’s Russia ties will grow stronger
Tuesday, November 7, 2023
Significance
Separately, Russian arms transfers to Naypyidaw are fuelling the conflict between the junta and its armed opponents. Among the countries that remain close to Myanmar, Russia and China are the most powerful.
Impacts
- Myanmar’s military assistance to Russia will not have a decisive impact on the course of the Russia-Ukraine war.
- The civilian death toll in the Myanmar conflict will mount as the air force continues its bombing campaign against resistance groups.
- ASEAN’s attempts to broker peace in Myanmar will make little progress.
