Myanmar's Peace Process Steering Team (PPST) of 10 Nationwide Ceasefire Agreement (NCA) signatories has announced a suspension of political dialogue with the military, Xinhua reported.

The PPST demands the release of all detained leaders and will cooperate with the international community to resolve the current political crisis, the PPST said in a statement.

Myanmar's military reformed the Peace Talks Committee on Feb. 1 for continuing talks with armed ethnic organizations after the declaration of a one-year state of emergency in the country.
