As the Spring Revolution continues, the determination of resistance forces to end the military dictatorship remains steadfast. Now approaching its fifth year, the armed struggle has made significant progress, marked by the seizure of towns and bases, and even the capture and control of the junta’s Regional Military Commands. However, in terms of coordinated operations, only sporadic efforts have been observed, highlighting the urgent need to achieve coordinated action through unity and collective strength to end the military dictatorship.
For the military junta, their plan is to stage a sham election as a last resort to salvage their failed coup process, aiming to deceive the international community and the public by forming a “civilian” government of former military officers.
