PHNOM PENH: Cambodia's former Prime Minister Hun Sen said on Tuesday he had asked Myanmar's junta leader to allow him to speak via video call to detained Novel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, a request he said would be given consideration.
Hun Sen on his Facebook page said he had made the request on Tuesday during a video call with Min Aung Hlaing, who led a 2021 coup against Suu Kyi's elected government.
Suu Kyi has been in detention ever since, jailed for a multitude of charges her allies say were politically motivated. Hun Sen also said Cambodia would send a special envoy to Myanmar.
