US President Barack Obama on Wednesday hailed the swearing-in of Myanmar's new president Htin Kyaw, a close aide to Nobel peace laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, as an "extraordinary moment" as the country emerges from military rule.
"Htin Kyaw’s inauguration represents a historic milestone in the country’s transition to a democratically elected, civilian-led government," Obama said in a statement. AFP
