KATHMANDU, Feb 7: Samantha Power, administrator of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), is arriving in Kathmandu today on a two-day visit to Nepal. Power is about to come to Nepal less than a week after Victoria Nuland, the US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, returned from a visit to Nepal. USAID informed about Power's visit through a statement only last Wednesday.

"She will highlight USAID’s commitment to increasing our engagement with Nepal and its new government. Administrator Power will announce new efforts to build momentum to strengthen democratic gains in federalism, social inclusion, civil society, and media freedom," added the statement.
