Myanmar’s strongman gives rare BBC interview
Senior General Min Aung Hlaing has given a rare BBC interview.
The commander-in-chief has control over how and where the army wages war, coupled with far reaching political powers.
In accordance with the military drafted constitution the 59-year-old has the right to appoint key ministers, choose a quarter of the MPs in the parliament and – as events last month showed – the ability to block any attempt to erode that power.
