New Delhi (Mizzima) Indian Foreign Minister S.M. Krishna will visit Burma on Monday, according to the Indian Embassy in Rangoon. A senior official from the embassy said that details of the visit were not yet known.

News circulating in Burma also speculated that Burmese President Thein Sein will visit India soon.
National Coalition Government of Union of Burma (NCGUB) Information Minister Dr. Tint Swe said that the visit may be in preparation of the Burmese presidents visit.
Not visiting India after paying a visit to China would be unforgivable from the point of view of India, he said.
The Voice weekly journal quoted the presidents adviser, Dr. Nay Zin Latt, as saying Thein Sein would visit India soon.
Dr. Tint Swe said that India was working on its Look East foreign policy and its main objectives in Burma was the border issue, trade and the insurgency on the border.
This matter became more complicated recently, he said. War broke out in Kachin State and it could have an impact on Indian insurgents operating in Naga Hills and Sagaing Division in Burma which are adjacent to Kachin State. So this matter will be a headache for the Indian government. I assume that the Indian FM would certainly try hard to resolve this issue by alternative ways, he said.
Minister Krishna visited Naypyitaw in December 2009; the Indian international spy agency, the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), chief S.K. Tripathi visited Naypyitaw on April 2011.
