TOKYO -- An unprecedented armed resistance has left Myanmar's military regime on the brink of collapse and another wave of attacks will come "in the next few weeks," the foreign minister of the country's shadow civilian leadership told Nikkei Asia.
The sudden escalation of the civil war triggered by what opposition forces term "Operation 1027," named for the date it began in late October, has the regime reeling, Zin Mar Aung of the National Unity Government (NUG) said in an interview on Monday in Tokyo.
