PHNOM PENH, Cambodia – Cambodia's prime minister is to attend a regional meeting in Thailand next month, in his first visit since the two countries recalled their ambassadors in a diplomatic tiff over a deposed Thai leader.
Cambodia's Foreign Ministry says Hun Sen will attend the First Mekong River Commission Summit on April 4-5, accompanied by Foreign Minister Hor Namhong and other top officials.
Thailand was angered last year when Cambodia appointed fugitive former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra an adviser on economic affairs. A subsequent visit by Thaksin to Cambodia, and its rejection of a request from Bangkok to extradite him, caused Thailand to recall its ambassador in protest. Cambodia followed suit, and relations remain strained.
