JAKARTA, Indonesia—Southeast Asian leaders demanded an immediate end to killings and the release of political detainees in Burma in an emergency summit Saturday with its top general and coup leader who, according to Malaysia’s prime minister, did not reject them outright.
The leaders of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations also told Senior Gen. Min Aung Hlaing during the two-hour talks in Jakarta that a dialogue between contending parties in Burma (also known as Myanmar) should immediately start, with the help of ASEAN envoys.
