The military council, which is planning to regain Lashio for free with Chinese help, is planning to gain international recognition. The foreign minister of the military council attended the informal talks on Myanmar held by Thailand. The talks were attended by foreign ministers from all five neighboring countries of Myanmar. It is known that the military council mainly talked about the upcoming elections next year. Thailand held a similar meeting last year to try to reinstate the military council. But nothing special happened. Now it is trying to reinstate the military council again.
In fact, many ASEAN countries, including China, and neighboring countries want to recognize the military council. It has not been able to work with Burma on any issue for about four years. However, the military council is not recognized because it has been violently suppressing the people. Therefore, they are waiting for the fake elections to be held by the military council. If such elections actually happen, all neighboring countries will be able to officially reinstate the military council.
