Remarkable In February 2021, the army came to power in Myanmar. Following a brutal crackdown on peaceful demonstrations by the military regime and police, the opposition resorted to armed struggle. Since then, detonations of landmines planted on roads have become a regular occurrence in some areas of the country. The head of Myanmar’s military government said on Monday that restoring peace and stability is the main goal of the armed forces and a key condition for handing over power to a civilian government.
