literally from the different all over the country. and of course, these are the new to the tags. you are up against, a military that has been in power for decades, making inroads, and border areas is one thing. but do you think it's possible to, for example, fight all the way to the capital one day and topple this winter? oh, definitely. this is the people, paul, what is it that people resolution um the ministry people thought that some people me thought the military cannot be defeated, but this recent ministry officer called you need to call for us to get some entry to show this a showcase in hoffman unity strain and so what do you need to take of this um, originally processed. and the other thing, the issues that we can state of the military, they are all actually they are, the more arising end of the surrender. i want to switch to looking at the
5:35 pm
civilian aspect. your government is running in parallel with the military authority . just briefly explain how that works. where do you administer? what are you trying to do? this is the military losing drones. let bacon and the roof on 2 areas above one people in the country. and then the most, almost 60 percent of the country territory is not controlled by and u g and the resistance forces and the many areas on top of that when you use up competing so many if you control only basically only the big cities that even the big cities of the, the lost control, and then we, we are winning and at this it says the home and this form. as soon as we gain the cause, you will hold the people's ministration on the wrong or right know, and you'd be set up though more than 100 ministration brother, right?
5:36 pm
70 townships across the mall and the state. also the help the, the old, the state who is ration from bodies before examining and currently stay are you so you can turn it into the executive council. so those are the ones that we're taking over the above the colorado services. and there's providing the administrative and then restoring the oral and then also the security also people. so those are the ones that we are we still see stations the resolution. i guess i'm going to end up going to be really ridiculous. you know, more, westfall your government was democratically elected, it is legitimate, but the international community has not recognized. you know, other country recognizes you. why do you think that is and what would you like to see? i know, how would we be here is that the most common don't recognize the, recognize
5:37 pm
a state, not the complement, but many governments are engaging with us. and then we are actively engaging with the international community. and then we'd be, we have thought, we have all of those concrete stuff would engage and improve. i kinda wanted to go and duplicate stuck so far for us. so yes, you are right. the we are the democratically elected, legitimate government, open them up, and it should be recognized as a law school that you didn't make them. and that's why we all we all was requesting and a bunch of them bought the international community chat. so thank you so much for joining us. but thank you. thank you. and we turned to ana plunkett of kings college london's war studies department for more and i thank you for joining the program, the national unity governments books. personally, we just talk to seems confident these recent military victories could be the beginning of the end. for the military when to what's your observation?
5:38 pm
i can definitely see why they all say positive. i think we look at what's happened over the past few weeks since the tons of votes for some type of but we can see that very significant, but she fig trees. but we haven't seen before since how does gamma? so there is my so shift and this is a big, tiny point in the conflict. but i think it's 2 ways how, whether that would be a would be sustained withheld by the military forces the taking them and what that means really successful. the national you need to get them at this time. what is china's role in all this? say? i think it's a very interesting one. china is the 9 to very much touch is position between the rebel goods and most borderlands that have controlled a lot of the areas between percent sure must be another control by the him to and china for very no time in the scenario that's been in conflict since he's a 100,
5:39 pm
it's for me a month. but his also works very closely with the central government on the hunt to since independence. the next level of memorandums. and they have a lot of investment in the m a. and what we can see over the last few minutes is a big frustration from the chinese government over the indigo sky networks that in working for the post lands me on la crating, significant problems for central china. so right now kind of seems to be considered right? we considering it support of the hundreds of this headache policy and possibly moving towards a pool of the reformation and all the energy, which is a big threat to the hands. as we can see from the side that they have now started trying to sound is not was as hundreds of use a scam as to the chinese government in the last few days. now the rebellion naturally wants to present itself as a united front, but some of these ethnic minority armies were fighting each other or the central government and they are now fighting alongside each other. how long can this
5:40 pm
coalition hold the evidence for me? i'm i think what is just the, this is business will be temporary and this alignment seems to be working very well . right now. i'm it is dismissed, which will be leading to these big gains as we've seen, the brother headlines, they've succeed very well in sean, on like, on a region. and it's not been joined by the k. a. i've seen similar kind of attacks being pulled in to any entire state. so in that regard, this lives working very effective me in terms of counseling ministry subjects right now. the experience is of alliances in me on my previously have highlighted that these are very short term agreements in regards to c spy. in regards to a previous licensed between level groups, these groups have very different names and objectives. and their big concerns about, you know, the items that a ration or estimate can to see me. i'm not as i think if that was way to come back and this could be a significant move forward. but there's a lot of obstacles. know a lot of historical reasons is that makes this kind of alliance very hard scripts
5:41 pm
to sustain. now the trigger for this friday, at least the most recent incident was the fact the military ignore the results of an election. any object did the democratically elected legislature a to what extent though, would it be accurate at this point to describe this as a pro democratic rebellion? well i think we looked at the leadership um, how much does just misty and support the energy have on the local level. i think we can definitely say that there is a very strong pro democracy elements to this movement. and i think it's trying to deny that would be some misunderstand what's happening to me on my right now. but i think we need to be honest about the context it's occurring within. the thought that a lot of rebel groups is by some 4 independent successions from m a for very long time. and so yes, it can be present the classic. but there is also a lot of succession is missing certain folks in this and a blanket. thank you so much for joining us. you. so that's it for the program,
