PHMyanmar's former leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who has been detained since a military coup in February 2021, met with a representative from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Naypyidaw. This marks the first known public meeting between Suu Kyi and a foreign official since her arrest. The ICRC confirmed the visit took place according to its standard procedures for detainees, allowing Suu Kyi to speak privately with the delegate. Government spokesperson Khine Khine Soe shared photos of the meeting, showing Suu Kyi in traditional Burmese clothing and celebrating her birthday in what appeared to be her detention location. Suu Kyi was initially sentenced to 33 years in prison but had her sentence reduced to 27 years, which was further reduced by one-sixth in April.
