An exclusive interview with Myanmar’s clandestine resistance government – Eutopya Podcasts
In this episode, Anya and Mario talk with the the official spokesperson for the National Unity Government, or NUG, of Myanmar. The NUG is the clandestine resistance government that was created after the military junta took control in February 2021. After a horrific war characterized by brutal civilian massacres and other atrocities, this year has marked a real shift in the Myanmar conflict—in recent months, the resistance has been beating back the junta forces, which have never been weaker than they are now. There’s hope that the end is in sight; all the more reason to keep talking about the uprising and to keep putting a spotlight on the injustices committed by the military leaders.
