Der Junta-Chef von Myanmar, Min Aung Hlaing, wurde nach einer Scheinwahl zum Präsidenten ernannt

Submission statement:

After three phases of sham elections, the Myanmar’s military dictator and „acting president“ was finally elected president officially. His greatest rival has been detained since the 2021 coup. Even before that Myanmar’s military was extremely influential. The military has repeatedly ethnically cleansed minorities, forcing them out of the country. After the coup civil war broke out, with ethnic armed organisations repudiating the 2008 military-led constitution and seeking to create a democratic federation in its place. The military conducted indiscriminate airstrikes killing civilians, mass killings of detainees, dismemberment and desecration of bodies, rape and the deliberate burning of entire villages.
