No more illusions in Myanmar

"Now, the military has staged a coup and wants to take the reins of government for a year in order to reform, among other things, the electoral commission. Article 417 of the constitution justifies the coup, allowing the military to take power if a state of emergency threatens the sovereignty or unity of the country. The military considers itself to be in the right.However, the coup amounts to the improbable principle of the military having to abolish democracy in order to save it."
