President Ram Nath Kovind will hold delegation level talks with Myanmar President U Win Myint in Nay Pyi Taw today. The President is on the 4-day official visit to Myanmar.

He arrived state capital Nay Pyi Taw last night. India and Myanmar enjoy good political relations, depicted by several high-level visits in the last 18 months. Both countries have good cooperation in the region because Myanmar is a member of both ASEAN and BIMSTEC.

Today, the official engagements will start with the ceremonial welcome of President Kovind, followed by delegation level talks with Myanmar President U Win Myint and then a meeting with the State Counsellor, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.

Talks will be held on a wide variety of issues ranging from connectivity, investment, people to people ties and agriculture. A Joint Statement will be adopted along with the signing of several agreements. In the evening, an official dinner will be hosted by the President of Myanmar and a small cultural performance will also be organised.
