ASHINGTON (AFP) – US envoy Kurt Campbell will visit Myanmar if the ruling military junta allows him to meet with opposition icon Aung San Suu Kyi and other opposition members, a senior US official said Friday.

“Unless the Burmese (Myanmar) government agrees to our conditions he will not go,” the State Department official told reporters, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

Campbell, the assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific Affairs, met with Suu Kyi in Yangon last November when he became the highest-ranking American official to visit Myanmar in 14 years.
