U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has wrapped up a three-day visit to Burma after discussions with democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi and a vow that the U.S. is prepared to support further democratic reform.
The two women held hands as they spoke to reporters Friday from the veranda of Aung San Suu Kyi's home in Rangoon, where the democracy leader was held under house arrest for most of the past two decades. Clinton said the U.S. will contribute about $1.2 million in aid to Burma for landmine victims, microfinance operations, and health care initiatives.
Clinton praised Aung San Suu Kyi's "steadfast and clear" leadership, saying that the U.S. wants to see Burma take its rightful place in the world. She called the democracy leader an inspiration.
