Myanmar Election News | Myanmar Holds Final Election Round With Army Set To Retain Control

Myanmar concluded the last round of its three-stage general election on Sunday, finalizing a process that guarantees the military and its allies a parliamentary majority. The army-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party (USDP) had already secured most seats in earlier rounds, and with 25% of parliamentary seats reserved for the military, control of the legislature is assured. Analysts say the results cement the army’s influence over Myanmar’s government, raising questions about the country’s democratic process.
