UN’s outgoing human rights envoy to Myanmar slams Suu Kyi

AlJazeeraEnglish

The UN’s outgoing human rights envoy for Myanmar says the country’s leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, has failed to live up to her reputation as a humanitarian. Her time in the role has been especially dominated by Myanmar’s crackdown in Rakhine State in 2017. About 750,000 people, mostly Rohingya Muslims, fled across the border to Bangladesh. Now Yanghee Lee has told Al Jazeera that she believes Myanmar’s army conducted ethnic cleansing and that Suu Kyi’s inaction was “utterly disappointing”. The government and army have denied the accusation. – Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe – Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish – Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera – Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/ […]

Since March, Israeli soldiers have shot dead at least 121 Palestinians who have been protesting for the right to return to their homeland.
