UN's Ban & Than Shwe: NLD, Aun Sang Suu Kyi and Vijay Nambiar not shown
Inner City Press: Thanks a lot for that. What’s the involvement of
Mr. [Vijay] Nambiar in the good offices and what does the
Secretary-General hope to come out of the meeting of the
Inner City Press: Just about Mr. Nambiar, because I’m actually
not clear on what the office does. I wanted to know, on
something like this, did they know in advance that this decision
was being made by the Government? Had they spoken to the
NLD about these concerns or are they just reacting to the stories
about it? I don’t meant that insultingly, I just mean, I’m just
trying to get a sense, did that office try to forestall this decision
by the Government, or are they as mystified as everyone else?
Inner City Press asked, does Mr. Ban believe that Aung San
Suu Kyi should be able to participate in the election? Video
here, from Minute 9:34.
And earlier this month, Nesirky and his office walked away
from another similar statement, about Kashmir.
After India complained, the UN backtracked and noted that
the Secretary General himself had not said the words, they
were mere “media guidance.”
So what DOES Mr. Ban himself think of the Myanmar
elections?
