Episode #2 | Military Coup in Myanmar
Manage episode 338767823 series 3386581
The Southeast Asian nation of Myanmar has suffered its fair share of one-party military rule interspersed with periods of attempted democracy. In the latest instance, the military police has overthrown the November 2020 election results claiming widespread voter fraud with little to no evidence. The leader of the National League for Democracy Party, Aung San Suu Kyi, has been detained and is currently under house arrest. Where is this heading, and how can President Biden respond against the coup without inflicting more suffering on the people?
