[geovalin]

The US Senate has called on Cambodia and all signatories of the Paris Peace Agreement to reaffirm their commitment to strengthen peace, prosperity, rights and the freedoms enjoyed by the Cambodian people 30 years after the signing of the accord.

 

The Senate on May 12 unanimously passed a resolution to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the 1991 Paris Peace Agreements, which ended decades of conflict and put Cambodia on a path to peace, stability and prosperity. The bipartisan resolution was sponsored by Senators Edward J. Markey of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney of Utah, Bob Menendez of New Jersey and Jim Risch of Idaho.

 

A statement from the US Ambassador in Phnom Penh said yesterday that the US Senate emphasises the need for the Government of Cambodia to commit to free and fair multiparty elections in the commune elections next month and national elections next year as an expression of its commitment to the self-determination of the Cambodian people.
