UN envoy to Myanmar warns that violence puts country on 'path to self-destruction'
UNITED NATIONS — Myanmar is on 'a path to self-destruction' if violence in the conflict-wracked Southeast Asian nation doesn't end, the U.N. envoy warned on Tuesday.
Julie Bishop told the U.N. General Assembly that 'alarmingly' the violence didn't end after a powerful earthquake in late March devastated parts of the capital, Naypyitaw, and the country's second-largest city, Mandalay, killing more than 3,000 people and injuring thousands more.
