Cambodia's ruling party urges parties directly concerned in South China Sea issue to negotiate with each other

Xinhua, June 22, 2016 Adjust font size:

Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo Hun Sen's ruling party on Wednesday called on the parties directly concerned in the South China Sea issue to resolve their disputes through peaceful negotiations.

"The Cambodian People's Party (CPP) insists that all parties concerned exercise self-restraint, do not use force or threaten to use force on the issues of South China Sea in order to give possibility to the parties directly concerned to negotiate with each other based on the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC)," said a CPP's statement.

The statement also rejected the unjust allegations that Cambodia had spoiled a recent ASEAN joint statement on the South China Sea issue in China's Kunming and a joint statement in Cambodia's Phnom Penh in 2012. Endit
