The military‑backed administration in Myanmar announced that a parcel addressed to detained former state counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi has been delivered, containing two books and diplomatic correspondence from King Charles III of the United Kingdom.
According to the State Administration Council, officials handed the items directly to Suu Kyi while she remains under detention following the 2021 coup that removed her elected government from power.
The package, described by the junta as “diplomatic correspondence,” is part of a broader outreach by the British monarchy, although the specific contents of the books and letters have not been disclosed.
Suu Kyi’s legal representatives have not issued a statement on the delivery, and the military government said the hand‑over was carried out in accordance with standard diplomatic protocol.
The delivery comes amid ongoing international criticism of Myanmar’s military rule and continued calls for the release of Suu Kyi and other political prisoners.
