New Delhi/Jakarta, Aug 2 (UNI) Foreign ministers of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations met virtually on Monday to select a special envoy to mediate among the military and the opposition and find a peaceful resolution to the crisis in Myanmar.
The meeting was held a day after Myanmar's top military commander Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing said that his government would accept the dispatch of the special envoy as agreed in April.
Gen Min made the statement in a televised speech on Sunday, six months after the February 1 military coup that overthrew the democratically elected government of the Aung San Suu Kyi led National League for Democracy.
