PENH, Cambodia (AP)
— Cambodia’s ruling and opposition
parties say their leaders will hold a fresh round of talks to end a yearlong
political deadlock after last year’s contentious election.
Both
parties said in a joint statement Monday that Prime Minister Hun Sen and
opposition leader Sam Rainsy will hold talks Tuesday for the third time to try
to defuse the political tension.
Lawmakers
from Sam Rainsy’s Cambodia National Rescue Party have boycotted their seats in
the Parliament since last July’s election, and are demanding reforms and new
elections. They say the polls were rigged.
Sam
Rainsy returned to Cambodia on Saturday, a few days after eight of his
colleagues were arrested during a demonstration at a park in Cambodia’s
capital.
