Foreign Policy
Myanmar's foreign policy under the junta is focused on regime survival and resisting international pressure. China and Russia provide diplomatic cover at the Security Council and supply military equipment. India maintains pragmatic engagement due to border security concerns and competition with China for influence.
ASEAN's engagement has been the primary multilateral channel, but the junta has largely ignored ASEAN's Five-Point Consensus. Myanmar's civil war has created regional instability through refugee flows, drug trafficking, and cross-border crime.
