Myanmar's opposition National Unity Government (NUG) supports the rebel groups that have been fighting the ruling junta since late last year. These groups "have regained almost 60 to 70 percent of the territory," opposition foreign minister Zin Mar Aung told FRANCE 24's Marc Perelman about the ongoing conflict.
Three years after the coup in Myanmar, the junta is facing an armed rebellion from ethnic groups, backed by the NUG. The junta are "losing on the ground" after already having lost popular support. "[They are] gradually losing practical control on the ground every day," Zin Mar Aung said.
