Announcement by the Steering Council for the Emergence of a Federal Democratic Union (SCEF)
Date: March 30, 2026
In order to advance our ongoing revolution and achieve victory at the earliest possible time; to advance the current revolutionary phase by adopting the Federal Transitional Arrangements and successfully establish a transitional government; and to effectively implement the processes of building a Federal Democratic Union we have formally established the Steering Council for the Emergence of a Federal Democratic Union (SCEF) on the following three pillars:
1. The pillar representing States/Federal Units/EROs
2. The pillar representing the people
3. The pillar representing women to coordinate, lead, guide, and implement military, political, federal, and institutional matters.
We hereby solemnly announce this formation to all the people.
Our vision and strategic objectives are to completely dismantle all forms of dictatorship, including the military dictatorship, and to collectively initiate a new political landscape that can effectively and practically realize our political aspirations and positions.
Furthermore, we are committed to protecting and promoting the diverse identities of all ethnic nationalities residing within members states and units of the Union, and to firmly building a new Federal Democratic Union composed of states that fully guarantee equality among nationalities and the right to self-determination.
To ensure the swift achievement of these objectives, we will lead and coordinate the military and political activities of all revolutionary forces with legitimacy, unity, and accountable leadership.
To realize these goals, we have firmly adopted the following six political objectives:
(1) To overturn the usurpation of state power by the military, and to terminate the involvement of the armed forces in politics
(2) To ensure that all armed forces operate solely under the command of a civilian government elected through democratic processes
(3) To abrogate the constitution of 2008 in its entirety, and to quash all attempts to reinstate its provisions
(4) To draft and promulgate a new constitution that embodies federalism and democratic values, garnering the consensus of all relevant parties
(5) To establish a new federal democratic union in accordance with the proposed federal democratic constitution
(6) To institute a system of transitional justice to achieve justice and accountability for victims of injustices, including gender-based violence, during the conflict period.
In carrying out its functions, the SCEF upholds the principle that sovereignty belongs to the people residing within the States/Federal Units, and adopts the principle of shared sovereignty between the Union and the States/Federal Units.
In political decision-making, we will practice collective leadership, ensuring that the voices of Ethnic Revolutionary Organizations (EROs), democratic resistance forces, womens groups, and representatives of the people are meaningfully included.
Member organizations of the Council will act based on mutual respect and recognition of diversity, and will adopt and implement the principle of one policy, one strategy. Through coordinated efforts across military, political, and administrative sectors, we will work in unity with the people and allied forces to achieve our shared goals while promoting broader representation.
We hereby make this announcement.
