United Nations Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs, Jeffrey Feltman, will visit Sri Lanka this week as planned while the country is in a state of emergency, a UN spokesman Stéphane Dujarric said on Tuesday.
Under Secretary Feltman will visit Sri Lanka from the 9-11 of March and will hold discussions with Sri Lankan leaders. He is also expected to visit Kandy where two people were killed in the violence.
The visit by the Under Secretary General was planned before the island nation declared the state of emergency and is part of ongoing UN engagement with Sri Lanka, the spokesman added.
