Myanmar Junta Chief Min Aung Hlaing was sworn in as President on Friday (April 10, 2026), continuing his rule from a civilian post five years after snatching power in a military coup.

As the nation’s armed forces chief, Mr. Min Aung Hlaing ousted the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi in 2021 — detaining the Nobel Peace Prize laureate and triggering a civil war.
