Myanmar's military government has announced plans to hold an election in December or January, claiming it will be 'free and fair.' This election will be the first since the military coup in February 2021, which ousted Aung San Suu Kyi's democratically elected government. Approximately 53 political parties are preparing to participate. The junta leader, Min Aung Hlaing, attributed the coup to alleged electoral fraud in the 2020 elections and has extended a state of emergency in the country amidst ongoing civil unrest and armed resistance against the military.
