The Federal Political Negotiation and Consultative Committee (Burmese: ပြည်ထောင်စုနိုင်ငံရေးဆွေးနွေးညှိနှိုင်းရေးကော်မတီ, abbreviated FPNCC) is an alliance and coalition of seven ethnic armed organisations (EAOs) in Myanmar seeking to negotiate with the central government.[1] Four FPNCC members – the Arakan Army (AA), the Kachin Independence Army (KIA), the Myanmar National Democratic Alliance Army (MNDAA) and the Ta'ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) – are also members of the Northern Alliance.[2] The FPNCC is the largest negotiating body of EAOs in the country. The Chinese government formally engages with the FPNCC, which is also recognised by the Chinese government as an EAO negotiation body with the Burmese central government.[3]
The FPNCC was established on 19 April 2017, in Pangkham, the headquarters of the United Wa State Army.[4] FPNCC was formed in response to the failure of the United Nationalities Federal Council to generate trust among member EAOs, four of which (KIA, SSPP, MNDAA, and AA) broke away from the council.[1] The seven founding members were all non-signatories to the Nationwide Ceasefire Agreement.[1]
In March 2023, in the aftermath of the 2021 Myanmar coup d'état and ongoing Myanmar civil war, the FPNCC officially called on China to help defuse the internal crisis in Myanmar.[5]
