It was too difficult to produce an answer from the discussions between the Myanmar Tatmadaw and EAOs, director of the Thayninga Institute for Strategy Studies U Thein Tun Oo told CNI News.
Although there was an agreement between the Myanmar Tatmadaw and the MNDAA to meet and discuss again on 15th January 2025, it was put off to 16th January 2025.
At China's brokered mediation, the Myanmar Tatmadaw and the MNDAA discussed in Kunming, Yunnan Province, China on 15th January 2024, the discussion broke down without any results.
If the discussions that were held were studied, results were rarely produced and because the two organizations' destinations were different, it might be too difficult to produce an answer, said U Thein Tun Oo.
" Normally, discussions are held. if the problem was solved politically, how far will it go? It must be watched. If all the discussions are studied, results were rarely produced. If the results are not produced, how long will the discussion take? It must be mainly seen. the armed groups have mainly chosen the military path while the government is walking on the political path. It's too difficult to produce an answer logically." said U Thein Tun Oo.

Some foreign countries were encouraging armed groups fighting against the Myanmar Tatmadaw directly or indirectly, said Sr-Gen Min Aung Hlaing in his written speech sent to the celebration of Kayah State Day which fell on 15th January 2025.
Moreover, carrying out terrorist acts by local nationality organizations was showing the lack of national spirit, wrong ideology, political immaturity and betrayal of their regions and nationalities, said chairman of the SAC.
Although the SAC did not accept terrorism, it invited armed organizations to discuss the political problem, chairman of the Arakan Front Party (AFP) told CNI News.

" In the speeches delivered by the chaorman of the SAC on the days such as national days and state days concerned, he invited armed organizations to discuss in order to solve the political problems through political means. In 2022, he invited to do so after designating as a peaceful year. All the NCA signatories came to discuss. Also, non-NCA signatories such as the UWSA and Myla came. In 2025, in his speeches he doesn't seem to accept terrorism. He invited to discuss politically." said Dr.Aye Maung.
In cooperation with the PDFs, the BPLA, the BNRA, the PLA, and the KNDF, the MNDAA, the AA and the TNLA launched Operation-1027. And then, they captured Chin Shwe Haw, Laukkai, Kon Kyan, Monkoe, Phaungsai, Theinni, Kutkai, Namkham, Nansang, Mangtong, Namtu and Mong Ngor.
