Myanmar’s powerful commander-in-chief has said he will meet with Aung San Suu Kyi in December for a “no limits” discussion on the transfer of power following her sweeping win in elections this month.
“I am prepared to talk and answer and discuss. No limits. She can have any topics and I will answer,” Senior General Min Aung Hlaing said, adding that the discussions will take place in December “when the electoral process is finished”.
In the wake of Aung San Suu Kyi’s victory, the 70-year-old Nobel peace prize winner asked Min Aung Hlaing and current president Thein Sein to discuss a national reconciliation government she intends to form, key talks that she hopes will further reduce a half-a-century military grip on power.
Asked during an interview with the Washington Post if he could work with Aung San Suu Kyi – a woman his predecessors placed under house arrest for much of the past two decades after she demanded democratic reforms – he replied: “Why not?”
