Sushma Swaraj In Myanmar

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said on Sunday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has advised Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi not to "destroy" her image over her stance on the Rohingya issue as Myanmar's military actions in Rakhine state sparked a global outrage.

India is "deeply concerned" at the spate of violence in Myanmar's Rakhine State where normalcy will be restored only with the return of "displaced persons", External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said today during her visit to Dhaka amidst the raging Rohingya refugee crisis.

In what can be seen as a milestone in New Delhi's "Neighbourhood First" policy, Myanmar's State Counsellor and Foreign Minister Aung San Suu Kyi will pay a state visit to India at the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi from October 17 to 19.

Myanmar is an important neighbor of India and both countries have enjoyed a very close relationship in the past. But despite the physical proximity and the close relationship of the past, the distance between the two countries was allowed to increase because Myanmar came under military rule and remained under it for decades.

President of Myanmar U Htin Kyaw will pay a four-day state visit to India beginning Saturday with an aim to further expand the traditionally close relations between the two countries by stepping up engagement in diverse areas.

Myanmar will not allow its territory to be used for any anti-India activities, this was conveyed by Myanmarese leaders to External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, who assured "all help" to the new government that came to power in March after decades of military rule.

India is ready to give "all help" was the message given to the Myanmarese leadership by External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj, who is in Nay Pyi Daw on the first high-level visit from India after the new government came to power in March following decades of military rule.

Describing her four-day Myanmar visit as "very successful", External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj today said she forcefully articulated India's position in meetings of ASEAN, ARF and East Asia Summit besides having bilateral engagements with her counterparts from 11 countries.

The ASEAN, considered one of the world's fastest growing regions, today resolved to significantly enhance cooperation with India in combating growing challenges of maritime security, terrorism, drug trafficking and cyber crime besides expanding trade ties.
