An official invitation was sent to Hun Sen for a visit to France. The trip could take place in July.
Last week, Hun Sen was officially invited to visit France. “He received an official letter on 28 May,” Koy Kuong, spokesman for the ministry of Foreign Affairs, confirmed.
Hun Sen had already indicated that he accepts the invitation. The trip is planned for July. For the time being, the exact date has not been fixed yet, but it could take place in mid-July. In 2008, the French president invited about 50 foreign head of states to view the 14 July (French Bastille day) parade.
Hun Sen’s last visit to France took place in 2005. During his talk with Jacques Chirac, then-president of France, on 19 September 2005, Hun Sen discussed about a document regarding the 2006-2010 cooperation [with France], about irrigation, and the KR tribunal.
