Myanmar Generals Path to Eternal Peace – The Diplomat

Negotiations over elections could be a stepping stone to a formal ceasefire, but the process remains fragile, particularly without civilian government buy-in. What should be done?  The Arakan Army should release three National League for Democracy candidates it has detained.
