Full coverage: The South China Sea Issue

Prime minister of Cambodia, Hun Sen, has denounced certain countries for influencing the South China Sea arbitration. He said one country is exerting pressure on Cambodia and other ASEAN countries.

"A month ago, an ambassador of a country visited me, and said he hoped that Cambodia would support the one voice of ASEAN, after the release of the result of the South China Sea arbitration. I asked immediately what does the one voice mean. The ambassador replied that it is to support the arbitration of the international tribunal. Then, I asked again whether the ambassador knew the result of the arbitration beforehand. This is not about law. This is a political event, and I do not support it," said Hun Sen.
