Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan has drummed up support for neighbouring Burundi by calling upon the European Union to lift economic sanctions imposed on the country six years ago.

The Tanzanian leader in Brussels, Belgium, where she held talks with the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, said a stable Burundi is good for the region.
