United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon would brief Security Council on his recent visit to Myanmar on Monday, a UN spokeswoman said on Saturday.
Ban had visited Myanmar last week, wherein the Myanmar's military junta denied him permission to meet Aung San Suu Kyi, the pro-democracy leader.
When asked about Ban's meeting with the National League for Democracy (NLD) while he was in Yangon, the Spokeswoman, Michele Montas, noted that Ban had asked to see the opposition parties in the country and was able to meet with them.
Montas said the Secretary General expressed his concerns about the proposed 2010 elections and the constitutional reform process in the country.
