After the confirmation of Trump becoming president in the United States, the impact on the revolution has been widely discussed domestically. As I said yesterday, there are at least tens of thousands of people who have sought political asylum in the United States. They are trapped at the Thai-Burma border and are currently living with UN assistance. If they cannot return home and cannot go to the United States, their lives will end as refugees at the border.
Another thing is the Burma Act approved by the Democratic President Joe Biden’s government. The law, which was approved in 2022, will now be in the gutter when Trump becomes president. It is not certain that other aid or sanctions on the military council will be provided. The negative effects on the revolution are many.
