The trial of Myanmar's deposed leader Aung San Suu Kyi is currently underway, while deaths continue under the military junta, and civilians train with armed rebel groups in the mountains.
US-born historian, former diplomat, and former presidential special advisor Thant Myint-U saw it coming.
In his 2019 book The Hidden History of Burma, Myint-U described a country at breaking point. He believes Myanmar is now at a point of no return and the nation will soon collapse.
