U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday that Myanmar needs to cement democratic reforms, but stressed continued support of its government and rejected calls for harsher policy against the country.
Mr. Kerry’s remarks come amid criticism in Congress that Myanmar’s government is backsliding on sectarian violence, press freedom and allowing democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi to compete for the presidency in next year’s election.
