Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi met with the country’s chief peace negotiator Aung Min to discuss reconciliation with armed ethnic groups as her National League for Democracy (NLD) prepares to form a
new government after sweeping general elections last month, a party official said Wednesday.
The meeting preceded a decision Wednesday by a bloc of 11 ethnic armed groups to form a committee for negotiations with the incoming NLD administration on the so-called nationwide cease-fire agreement (NCA) signed Oct. 15 between eight insurgent armies and the government.
“Minister Aung Min met Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and explained how [government negotiators] went about signing the NCA and what the MPC has been doing,” senior NLD staffer Win Htein told RFA’s Myanmar Service.
