Too early to say 'positive', NLD on meeting with UN envoy

New Delhi (Mizzima) - Burma's detained opposition leader

Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and her party – the National League

for Democracy – on Monday said their meeting on Monday with

visiting United Nations special envoy Ibrahim Gambari cannot

be considered a 'positive step' as they need to assess the

overall result of his visit.

remove economic sanctions and visa bans.
