New Delhi (Mizzima) - The United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and his special advisor on Burma Ibrahim Gambari will meet on Thursday in the Indian capital New Delhi to discuss Gambari's recent visit to military-ruled Burma, a UN official said.
An official at the UN office in New Delhi told Mizzima that Gambari, who on Tuesday wound-up a four-day visit to Burma, will be meeting UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in New Delhi.
"Both will be here on Thursday, but I am not aware of the details of their visit," the official told Mizzima.
Marie Okabe, UN spokesperson in New York told reporters, "The UN envoy [Gambari] is expected to meet the Secretary-General in India on Thursday to report on the overall outcome of his latest visit [to Burma]."
Ban Ki-moon, who will arrive in New Delhi on Wednesday evening, is likely to meet Indian External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee to discuss regional issues.
"We [the UN] have requested a meeting, but we don't know if that will be possible," the UN official said.
Ban Ki-moon will also attend a conference on climate change – 'Delhi Sustainable Development Summit 2009' - organizers of the conference said. Gambari on the other hand is slated to tour the region in the wake of his visit to Burma.
