Don’t Believe What the Defenders of Myanmar’s Junta Say (Ye Myo Hein, The National Interest)

December 28, 2021

As the Burmese junta has faced growing pressure from the international community, pro-military voices have sought to polish the irretrievably tarnished image of the Burmese military. Recently, they have become more active in disseminating narratives favorable to the military, called the Sit-tat by the Burmese people, to international audiences. Some shared these narratives in the media. Some brought them up to policymakers. Some distributed them in discussion rooms. Despite the use of different platforms, their narratives invariably echo arguments put forth by the military junta since the first day of the coup.
