“As a heavily cluster-bombed country, we are willing to become a party to the convention.”Cambodia has not yet signed a cluster munition ban that went into effect Sunday. Thirty-seven countries have ratified the 2008 Convention on Cluster Munitions.
“As a heavily cluster-bombed country, we are willing to become a party to the convention,” Prak Sokun, a secretary of state for the Council of Minister, told VOA Khmer last week. “But we have to consider thoroughly any impact to our national security.”
The cluster munition convention bans the production, use, transport or stockpiling of cluster munitions.
It was opened to states for signatures in 2008 in Oslo, Norway.
“Countries like Thailand and Vietnam have not signed it either,” said Prak Sokun, who is an adviser to Prime Minister Hun Sen on landmine issues.
