Myanmar’s civilian leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who is facing international criticism over her country’s crackdown on Rohingya Muslims, called Saturday for “a culture of peace” to end conflict between communities, Agence-France Presse reports. She is facing calls from around the world to condemn what UN investigators identified as mass killings of the minority group. Last month Amnesty International stripped Suu Kyi of its highest honor, the Ambassador of Conscience Award. The politician and Nobel peace prize winner received the honor in 2009, when she was living under house arrest. Having escaped brutal torture and persecution at the hands of the Myanmar authorities, which the United Nations described as a “textbook case of ethnic cleansing,” the vast majority of Rohingyas are petrified to return, ABC News reports.
