DUKUNGAN RUSIA TERHADAP MYANMAR DALAM KONFLIK TAHUN 2021–2022
Keywords:
Russia, Myanmar, arms supply, international relations, coup.
Abstract
This study examines Russia’s national interests in supplying major weapon systems (alutsista) to Myanmar amid the dynamics of international relations following the 2021-2022 military coup. Utilizing an international relation analytical approach, the research highlights how Russia leverages Myanmar’s internal crisis as a strategic opportunity to expand its influence and national interests in Southeast Asia. Russia’s involvement affects not only military aspects but also impedes democratization and reinforces oligarchic structures in Myanmar. The close bilateral relationship reflects mutual support in international forums and opens new opportunities for Russia in the energy and nuclear technology sectors.
