Prime Minister Hun Sen’s official visit to France sparked demonstrations organised by Cambodian expatriates in Paris over the weekend, prompting the Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) to issue a statement on Saturday condemning them for incitement and claiming they have no right to interfere with the Kingdom’s internal affairs.

Saturday’s demonstration, which took place at the highly visited Human Rights plaza at the Trocadero, in full view of the Eiffel Tower, was organised by an ad hoc coalition of Cambodian political, cultural and religious organisations based in France, according to a document released by the organisers.

The organisers’ call for action, published in French and Khmer, demanded the 1991 Paris Peace Accords be upheld and condemned Hun Sen and his government for “deliberate violations of national and citizens’ rights and … Vietnamese colonialism in Cambodia”.
