JAKARTA, Feb. 12 (UPI) -- The Association of Southeast Asian Nations has scheduled an emergency meeting to discuss the border dispute between Cambodia and Thailand.
Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa, who currently chairs the group, said the invitations went out Friday, the Bangkok Post reported. The meeting is set for Feb. 22 in Jakarta.
While the invitations only mention discussion of "regional and international issues," ASEAN sources told the Post the border dispute is clearly the item on the table.
Cambodia has asked the United Nations to set up a buffer zone in the disputed area, while Thailand says the two countries should negotiate a solution on their own.
The two countries' foreign ministers have been invited to attend a U.N. Security Council meeting Monday. Marty, as head of ASEAN, was also invited.
