YANGON, Myanmar, Jan 26, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Myanmar's dominant pro-military party has won junta-run elections, a party source told AFP on Monday, after a month-long vote that democracy watchdogs dismissed as a rebranding of army rule. "We won a majority already," a senior official from the Union Solidarity and Development Party said on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to share preliminary results. "We are in the position to form a new government."
