The Karenni State Interim Executive Council (Karenni IEC) is a provisional government established in Karenni State, Myanmar.

History[edit]

The Karenni IEC was established on 12 June 2023 by the Karenni State Consultative Council (KSCC) during the Myanmar civil war.[1] It was created to unify the many Karenni resistance groups which control territory throughout Karenni State, bring stability to the region, and establish a unified governing body in resistance-held areas of Karenni State.[2] The Karenni IEC is the first regional provisional government established during the Myanmar civil war,[3] followed by several others; including the Chinland Council.
