Burmese leader Aung San Suu Kyi was in New Delhi on Oct. 18 as part of a three-day state visit. Suu Kyi spoke to The Washington Post as her administration marks six months in office, and as fresh violence threatens to derail the country’s peace process. In August, Suu Kyi appointed former U.N. secretary general Kofi Annan to look into the situation with the Rohingya. The government restarted a process of citizenship verification for the Rohingya in June, but many of the Rohingya refused to participate, Suu Kyi said. “We’ve depended on sanctions long enough,” Suu Kyi said.
