Cambodian PM sees 'collusion'

Any ASEAN statement supporting ruling in arbitration would be opposed, he says

Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen has warned that his party sees the upcoming ruling in arbitration concerning the South China Sea as "the worst political collusion in the framework of international politics".

The top Cambodian leader spoke out as more than 60 countries or organizations, according to China Daily's count, have echoed China's commitment to direct negotiations for settling disputes rather than using arbitration.
