Gov’t will not allow Cambodians to leave country to help Ukraine

Prime Minister Hun Sen yesterday called on Cambodians not to volunteer themselves to help Ukraine as the government will not allow anyone to go to the country.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the Cambodia-China Tboung Khmum Friendship Hospital with the Chinese Ambassador to Cambodia Wang Wentian, Mr Hun Sen urged Cambodians not be overly concerned about wanting to volunteer their help in the Ukraine as the government will not give them the opportunity to go there.

“There is nothing to go there, do not pour gasoline on the fire, do not ignite in the way that some Cambodians ask to be volunteer soldiers to fight in Ukraine,” he added. “I will not allow our people to die in Ukraine. Our Constitution does not allow that. The only ones who can go abroad for mission are our Blue Helmet troops, but it’s under the auspices of humanitarianism of the United Nations,” he added.
