Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi said Tuesday her country is committed to finding a peaceful solution to the ongoing violence in Rakhine State, amid global pressure over a military crackdown that has triggered a mass exodus of Rohingya Muslims in recent weeks.

Suu Kyi said during an address in the capital Naypyitaw that Myanmar does "not fear international scrutiny," is committed to the "restoration of peace, stability and rule of law" in the state and condemns all human rights violations. Action will be taken against violators, she added.

Suu Kyi, a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, has been under intense scrutiny over her tepid response to the plight of Rohingyas -- a persecuted, stateless minority in the predominantly Buddhist country's strife-torn state.

Suu Kyi also made it clear that Myanmar will implement the recommendations by an advisory commission led by former U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, which has focused on humanitarian, development, basic rights and security issues in the state.

International pressure has been mounting on Suu Kyi for doing little despite reports of widespread atrocities being committed by the security forces against Rohingyas, with many Rohingyas reportedly being prevented from returning.

In her speech, Suu Kyi said Myanmar wants to find out why the exodus of Rohingyas is happening and said a verification process for refugees hoping to return will begin.

The latest round of violence in Rakhine broke out on Aug. 25, when Rohingya militants launched coordinated attacks on police posts and an army post, prompting a military crackdown.

U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein has said the military operation appears to be "a textbook example of ethnic cleansing."

The death toll from the widespread violence, including Rohingyas, has risen past 400, while an estimated 400,000 Rohingyas have fled across the border into Bangladesh.

Suu Kyi has decided not to attend the U.N. General Assembly session later this month, a government spokesman said last week, citing the need for her to stay at home to focus on key issues like the situation in Rakhine.
