Former Junta Chief Sworn In as Myanmar's New President
On April 10, 2026, the former head of the military junta was officially sworn in as the President of Myanmar during a ceremony in Naypyidaw. The transition follows a period of restructuring within the State Administration Council (SAC). While the military administration presents the move as a step toward political normalization, internal opposition and international observers remain critical of the government's legitimacy amid the ongoing civil conflict and resistance movements that have persisted since the 2021 coup.
