MOSCOW — Myanmar’s military chief Min Aung Hlaing will meet President Vladimir Putin in Moscow on Tuesday as the junta — shunned and sanctioned by the West — turns to a major international backer to aid in its ongoing conflict with ethnic armed groups.
The two will discuss strengthening economic and security cooperation, Myanmar's ruling State Administration Council said in a statement ahead of meeting. Bilateral agreements on energy, science and technology sectors will likely be signed.
