The Straits Times (ROME) – Pope Francis has called for the liberation of Myanmar’s detained former leader and Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, and offered the Vatican as a safe haven, the pontiff said in a recent conversation with Jesuits in Asia. “I asked for Ms Aung San Suu Kyi’s release and received her son in Rome. I offered the Vatican to receive her in our territory,” he said in a private conversation during a recent 12-day tour across South-east Asia.
