(Worthy News) – Burma’s leader Aung San Suu Kyi arrived at the International Court of Justice in the Hague Tuesday to arbitrate the case against her for genocide opened by Muslim country Gambia.
The Nobel peace prize-winner-become-president denies that her military carried out a forced expulsion of the Muslim Rohingya ethnic group in 2017 with “genocidal intent,” as investigators say, which action forced 700,000 of them to flee to neighboring Bangladesh.
Suu Kyi’s government instead avers that her military carried out a mere campaign to punish Islamist “militants,” though the military is accused of sexual and physical abuses against the beleaguered Rohingya too.
Suu Kyi is the former sweetheart of western liberals, seen once as a champion of democracy against a brutal military dictatorship.
