India welcomes Suu’s release
Nov. 13: India has broken its deafening silence on Myanmar and welcomed pro-democracy icon and Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi’s release. In a brief statement on Saturday night, external affairs minister S.M. Krishna hoped this will be the beginning of the process of reconciliation in Myanmar.
Mr Krishna said: “The recent elections in Myanmar are an important step in the direction of the national reconciliation process being undertaken by the military government. We have always encouraged them to take this process forward in a broad-based and inclusive manner. In this context, as a close neighbour of Myanmar, we are confident that the release of Suu
Kyi will contribute to efforts for a more inclusive approach to political change.”
