Here is the schedule of Nepalese Modern Hitler....
His Majesty King Gyanendra is expected to address the upcoming United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on September 16, a news report said.
A formal announcement to this effect is yet to be made.
Samay, a leading weekly newsmagazine, reported Friday that His Majesty will be arriving in the US on September 12 leading a Nepali delegation to the UNGA. His Majesty will spend nearly three weeks out of the country on the way and back from New York, the news report said.
It will be the third foreign visit by His Majesty after taking over powers in February this year.
During his visit to the ?Big Apple,? His Majesty is expected to meet a number of world leaders including the US President George W. Bush. The meeting with the US President is, however, yet to be finalized, reports said.
King Gyanendra is also expected to meet with Indian premier, Dr. Manmohan Singh, on the sidelines of the UNGA, according to reports. During the meeting, Dr. Singh is likely to follow-up on their meeting in Jakarta in April this year when His Majesty had reportedly assured the Indian leader about his keenness to return to democracy as soon as possible. Though the three-month-old state of emergency was lifted as soon as King Gyanendra returned home on April 29, the international community has criticized the royal regime for continuing with restrictions on civil liberties, among others.
Meanwhile, India Today?a leading Indian newsmagazine?has reported in its latest issue that Nepal has urged for resumption of arms from India in exchange for its support to the latter?s bid for permanent membership of the UN Security Council (UNSC). India had put on hold its military assistance to Nepal terming the royal takeover as a ?setback to democracy.?
?Besides Nepal is also seeking support for the non-permanent category in the Security Council in 2007-08,? the news report said.
When Indian Minister of State for External Affairs, Rao Indrajit Singh, visited Kathmandu last month seeking Nepal?s support for his government?s bid for the UNSC, Nepali authorities said they were still studying the issue. ?While putting pressure on Kathmandu to restore democracy, (India) also realizes that in its UNSC mission, every vote counts. Now it will have to weigh its options,? the newsmagazine reported. nepalnews.com by Aug 07 05
