Myanmar's parliament set to vote on presidential nominees on Monday.
After her party won a landslide victory in parliamentary elections last year, Nobel peace prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi was well-placed to lead Myanmar.
But her two sons are British, and under the country's military-drafted constitution, that prevents her from becoming president.
Having failed to convince the army to let her run anyway, she has named Htin Kyaw, a man from her inner circle, as presidential nominee.
It's widely seen as a way for Suu Kyi to rule Myanmar indirectly.
On this Inside Story, we look at the deal that's been done to allow Suu Kyi to stay at the pinnacle of Myanmar's politics.
And ask, will she have to compromise with the military?
