The leader of Myanmar ’s military-backed government has invited the country’s armed resistance groups to fresh peace talks, state-run newspapers reported Tuesday, marking the first such call from President Min Aung Hlaing since he took office earlier this month.
Min Aung Hlaing’s call for talks was framed as part of a self-styled 100-day program that he announced at a cabinet meeting on Monday in the capital Naypyitaw prioritizing peace and stability as well as development, reported the state newspaper Myanma Alinn.
