"Do-no-harm-amendable-to-Washington-demands" Ban Ki Moon ...in Washington

"...Ban Ki-moon had strong Bush administration support that catapulted him to the SG position, a Hill source notes, partially because the Bush administration viewed him as a "do no harm" type of leader who would be more amendable to Washington demands than the increasingly independent Kofi Annan. No word yet on whether US ambassador to the UN Susan Rice plans to join in the D.C. pow-wow on Wednesday."
