The American government is to seek UN security council action against
Burma's military junta next month to try to win the release of the
detained Nobel peace prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, end human rights
abuses, and promote democracy in the country.
In a move likely to alarm south-east Asian countries and China, which
favour a hands-off approach, the US is expected to tell the security
council that Burma poses a threat to international peace and security
and the junta's misrule can no longer be considered an internal matter.
