In the current political landscape of Myanmar, where the country is on the verge of collapse, each relevant leader should reduce their own interests and the powers they have acquired in order to avoid a failed state, spokesperson of the 7 EAO Alliance, Naing Aung Ma Ngay told CNI News.

Whether a country becomes a failed state or not depends on the respective leaders, he said.

"If leaders of EAOs, organizations, and parties, including the SAC reduce the power they have wielded to ensure equality and to consider the interests of the people, Myanmar can be prevented from becoming a failed state." said Naing Aung Ma Ngay.

EAOs have captured territories as much as they can after 2021 and because the territories they have dominated have expanded, more territorial disputes are taking place.

Moreover, due to the different demands of all ethnic armed groups, if the current situation continues, Myanmar could become a failed state, according to military and political analysts.

The political situation in Myanmar that has been over four years long is at its worst at present, chairman of the Shan Nationalities League for Democracy (SNLD), U Sai Nyunt Lwin told CNI News.

"The political situation in Myanmar has now reached a very bad state. Although many cities had not been damaged yet like in World War II, members of the public are getting into trouble for their livelihoods. If we talk about the public's wishes, they want the crisis to come to an end quickly. They want the situation to get better quickly. If possible, they want everything to be settled." he said.

There are territorial disputes in Shan State between the KIA and the TNLA, between the KIA and the MNDAA, between the TNLA and the SSPP, between the RCSS and the SSPP and between the PNO and the PNLO.

In the same way, there are also territorial disputes in Tanintharyi Region and Karen State between the NMSP and the KNU, and between the KNU and the KTLA. Although there are suggestions to resolve the crisis through dialogue, there has been no political dialogue that can reach a reformation movement, pointed out military and political analysts.
