Sanctions on Burma leader lifted

19 September 2012 Last updated at 14:25 ET

The US Treasury has lifted sanctions against Burma's President Thein Sein and the speaker of the lower house of parliament, Thura Shwe Mann.

The move comes as opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi is visiting the US.

The US Treasury said it had removed Thein Sein and Thura Shwe Mann from its list of "Specially Designated Nationals" which sanctions individuals.

Sanctions against Burma have eased since the new government took power in 2011 and started reforms.
