UNITED NATIONS
NEW YORK N.Y. 10017
10 March 1996
Dear Dr. U Ne Oo,
Thank you for your letter of 3 January 1996 addressed to Mr. Alvaro de
Soto, Assistant Secretary-General for Political Affairs. We appreciate your
support for UN efforts to help bring about national reconciliation and
democracy in Myanmar.
As you are well aware, the Secretary-General has been exercising his good
offices functions based on General Assembly resolutions on Myanmar, and we
are constantly searching for new ideas and initiatives to help bring about
more dialogue amongst the various parties within Myanmar. We hope that the
efforts of the United Nations, coupled with efforts by members of the
international community and cooperation by the Government of Myanmar and
the democratic forces in Myanmar, would help in the implementation of the
provisions of the General Assembly and Human Rights Commission resolutions.
As to possibilities for UN Peace-keeping, an international arms embargo and
any other Security Council action, it is up to the Security Council members
to decide on those matters.
Yours sincerely,
Sd. Hiroko Miyamura
Associate Political Affairs Officer
East Asia & Pacific Division
