A police officer in Yangon, Myanmar, stands guard next to a wall painting by Burmese artist Arker Kyaw welcoming President Barack Obama. President Obama was the first sitting U.S. president to visit Myanmar, where he met with President Thein Sein and Aung San Suu Kyi, the opposition leader who spent more than 15 years under house arrest before the country shifted to democracy after decades of military rule.
