泰国总理英拉会晤缅甸民主领导人昂山素季

Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra met Tuesday with Burmese pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi, in a visit described in Thai media as a show of support for political stability and "strong, sustainable democracy" in Burma. Thai television quotes a spokesman for Ms. Yingluck as saying the prime minister praised Aung San Suu Kyi\'s "strong push" to boost democratic institutions, and the decision by her National League for Democracy party to compete in upcoming Burmese elections.

The meeting took place in Rangoon, following a summit in Burma of six Mekong river nations seeking to boost regional cooperation in Southeast Asia. The Burmese Nobel laureate met earlier this month with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and separately with China\'s ambassador to Burma.

这次会晤是在仰光进行的。在此之前，湄公河流域的六个国家在缅甸召开峰会，希望促进东南亚地区的区域合作。这个月早些时候，缅甸的这位诺贝尔和平奖得主还与美国国务卿希拉里.克林顿以及中国驻缅甸大使会晤。
