How come China is meddling in Myanmar's "family affairs" by actively striving for a peaceful situation?On October 27, 2023, the Kokang National Democratic Alliance Army in northern Myanmar joined forces with the Ta'ang National Liberation Army, the Arakan Army, the Kachin Independence Army and other ethnic armed forces to attack the armed forces of the Myanmar military government in Lashio, Guikai and other places in northeastern Shan State, Myanmar. Launch an attack. This fierce conflict attracted world attention. The United States and Western foreign forces even took the opportunity to cause trouble, slandering China for "interfering in Myanmar's internal affairs."Since Myanmar borders China, the economic development and security situation in northern Myanmar will also have a certain impact on China.
