British Foreign Office Minister for Africa, Asia and the United Nations Lord Malloch Brown made the remarks upon his arrival at Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport Friday morning.
When questioned about support to a Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) lead government, Brown said that would make no difference as the CPN-M were an elected party in the Constituent Assembly polls.

Brown has a busy scheduled Friday due to the election of first Nepali president and vice-president on Saturday.
