Burma’s Suu Kyi ill at conference

Burma opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi fell ill during a news conference in Switzerland today, shortly after saying how exhausted she was after a long trip from Asia to Europe – her first in 24 years.

After being given a rock star welcome in Geneva, the Nobel peace laureate looked pale as she took questions alongside Foreign Minister Didier Burkhalter in the Swiss capital of Berne.
