KATHMANDU: US Ambassador to Nepal Randy Berry called on Chairman of Nepal Communist Party (NCP) Prachanda-Nepal faction Pushpa Kamal Dahal alias Prachanda on Monday.

Ambassador Berry in a tweet said that he discussed US President Joe Biden’s priorities in the meeting with the former Prime Minister.

Ambassador Berry had noted that the Biden administration wants to partner with Nepal and other countries to meet the common challenges that no single nation can face on its own – from climate change to nuclear proliferation, and from cyber-warfare to global health challenges like COVID-19, according to the US Embassy.
