The Brotherhood Alliance said in a statement on December 12 that it will not ignore the political goals of the entire Myanmar people, who have been suffering from the oppression of the military regime for generations.
The Brotherhood Alliance, made up of Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army, Ta’ang National Liberation Army and Arakan Army, and the junta's National Solidarity and Peace Negotiation Committee (NSPNC), met in Kunming, Yunnan Province, China on December 11, the junta said.
The regime and the MNDAA agreed to a temporary ceasefire for 15 days until the end of December and the withdrawal of junta troops from Laukkai. There have also been widespread questions about whether the Brotherhood Alliance and the regime are about to sign a ceasefire.
The Brotherhood Alliance has issued a statement to the public following the reported 15-day ceasefire between the military and MNDAA.
The Brotherhood Alliance said that the people of Myanmar should not worry too much about this matter. The statement reads that the Brotherhood Alliance will work together with the entire people to overthrow the military dictatorship until the common goal is fully realised.
Although there have been talks between the Brotherhood Alliance and the regime, the fighting continues unabated.
The Brotherhood Alliance, which is conducting its ‘Operation 1027’, and the regime have held talks due to China’s mediation, but political analysts have suggested that the momentum toward regime change may be too great to greatly alter the current political dynamics.
