29 political parties, including Union Solidarity and Development Party, Myanmar People’s Democratic Party and National Unity Party, expressed their full support for the State Administration Council and Office of the Commander-in-Chief of Defence Services issuing a joint statement on 3 March.
The statement said Tatmadaw has issued statements for ceasefire 22 times from 21 December 2018 to 31 December 2023 to ensure the restoration of durable peace nationwide and further promote the peace process. On 26 September 2024, the State Administration Council gave an offer to resolve the political problem through political means.
