Myanmar’s junta has annulled the results of the country’s 2020 election, which saw Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy (NLD) party win in a landslide, drawing condemnation from political parties who condemned the move as illegal and said they will not honor it.
The military-appointed Union Election Commission (UEC) announced the decision late on Monday evening, claiming that more than 11.3 million ballots had been discounted due to fraud and other irregularities during the Nov. 8 vote.
Among alleged irregularities, the commission said the deposed NLD government had assigned members of the UEC sub-commission at Myanmar’s state and regional levels, election authorities allowed voters to cast ballots without presenting their national identification cards, voters cast multiple ballots under the same name, and the NLD election victory committee members were part of a commission in charge of gathering early ballots.

Deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi’s party and other groups in Myanmar’s pro-democracy camp are shunning a meeting on Friday of an election commission set up by the military junta that overthrew the government, with one party condemning the army regime for having “rejected the democratic path chosen by the people.”
The coup led by military commander-in-chief Min Aung Hlaing that arrested Aung San Suu Kyi and ousted her National League for Democracy (NLD) government on Feb. 1, citing electoral fraud, said it would hold elections in a year.
However, the junta has been widely rejected in the multi1ethnic country of 54 million people, drawing widespread street protests, teacher and doctor strikes, and armed resistance in several ethnic states in border areas. The army has killed more than 800 civilians in heavy-handed crackdowns on protesters.
