UNITED NATIONS, February 10 -- With fighting continuing between Cambodia and Thailand, including reported use of cluster bombs, a February 14 meeting of the UN Security Council on the conflict was confirmed Thursday night to Inner City Press by India's Permanent Representative to the UN Hardeep Singh Puri.
Indonesia's foreign minister Marty Natalegawa will attend, he said, though only in his “personal capacity.” The meeting will be closed, with no press. Other countries with an interest can attend but not speak.
While some Security Council members had hoped that Cambodia could be convinced to withdraw its request for a meeting, this has not happened. In fact, Cambodia's prime minister Hun Sen has accused his Thai counterpart of war crimes.
The UN and its Secretary General Ban Ki-moon have had little to say about the fighting on the Thai - Cambodia border, despite UNESCO and the World Heritage designation having fanned the flames of nationalism. Now, not only Indonesia's current foreign minister but previous Thai foreign minister Surin Pitsuwan are touted as a possible replacements of Ban Why isn't Ban speaking to the Council Monday on this issue?

Ah Fuck! Why are you posting your links on this forum?
Fuck you, asshole!
UN cannot find the best way for resolution. who can solve it? I think UN will hand this issue to ASEAN but Cambodia need to confirm that ASEAN can provide expected results for Cambodia. 1- Thai force have to withdraw arm force and military materials. This area not military stand by. 2- People both countries countries come to live as normal. 3- Thai responsible for war and repay to Cambodia impact on Cluster bombs and temple. If Thai not do it Cambodia should not talk with THai or Asean. We khmer further world court to review and explain and force Thai to do its obligations.
