Myanmar military won’t allow ASEAN envoy to meet Suu Kyi – spokesman

Oct 14 (Reuters) – Myanmar’s ruling military will not block a special Southeast Asian envoy from visiting the country but will not allow him to meet detained former leader Aung San Suu Kyi, because she is charged with crimes, a spokesman said.

Junta spokesman Zaw Min Tun, in comments issued by the military dated Wednesday, also said a delay in the United Nations approving the military government’s U.N. ambassador nomination had political intentions.
