Burmese democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi continues her whirlwind European tour Tuesday in Britain, where she will reunite with family after leaving the country nearly a quarter century ago.
The Nobel laureate, who turns 67 on Tuesday, will participate in a panel discussion at the London School of Economics before attending a family reunion in Oxford.
Later in the week, Aung San Suu Kyi will address both houses of parliament in London - a rare honor usually given only to high-profile foreign dignitaries.
She lived and studied for years in Britain before returning to her homeland in 1988 to care for her ailing mother. She eventually became the leader of Burma's pro-democracy movement and spent much of the next two decades in detention under the country's harsh former military rulers.
