External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj will undertake a four-day visit to Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar, from today.

It would be her fourth visit to a neighbouring country since she assumed office. She had earlier visited Bhutan, Bangladesh and Nepal.

Briefing reporters in New Delhi earlier this week, Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Syed Akbaruddin said Swaraj will attend the India-ASEAN Foreign Ministers' meeting, the East Asian Summit meeting for Foreign Ministers, and the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) in Myanmar.

She will also hold bilateral meetings with her counterparts from China, Australia and Vietnam.
