Title Myanmar’s junta chief-turned civilian president commutes all death sentences Source France 24 - World News
Description Min Aung Hlaing, leader of Myanmar’s junta and last week installed as the country’s civilian president, has issued a blanket order to commute all death sentences. The military junta resumed executions after ousting Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi from power in a coup in 2021. Critics say the sitting transition government is merely a civilian rebranding of military rule.
