Beijing has much at stake in Burma as the Southeast Asian country plunged into a political crisis after a military coup, according to OANN TV host and former Navy intelligence officer Jack Posobiec.

“When it comes to the Burma situation...this is all about the reach and the stretch of the CCP’s [Chinese Communist Party] influence across not only in East Asia, the South China Sea, but now we’re seeing into Southeast Asia,” said Posobiec in an interview with The Epoch Times’ sister media NTD.
