Opposition Leader Wraps Up Washington Visit

Opposition leader Sam Rainsy will be interviewed by VOA Khmer in Washington Thursday morning, following meetings with US and UN officials and donors over Cambodia’s ongoing political deadlock in the wake of marred elections in July. Sam Rainsy met with US Deputy Secretary of State William Burns Wednesday afternoon. A spokeswoman for the State Department said Wednesday that US officials “do believe and continue to believe that a credible and transparent review of the election would help efforts moving forward.” (Sok Khemara, Washington)
