UN Security Council media stakeouts (press conferences) on briefing by Ibrihim Gambari of his most recent trip to Burma.

Note: Much more finely calibrated approach on part of UN and international community.

Listen especially to Gambari's press conference, and those of 2 US Embassadors to UN, Mr. Zalmay Khalilzad and his deputy.

I am planning regular updates on Burma on this blog and in articles I write and appearances.
