Deputy Prime Minister H.E. Prak Sokhonn, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation said a letter to his Myanmar counterpart on the 55th ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Meeting and Related Meetings to be hosted by Cambodia from July 30 to Aug. 6, 2022 has been sent but it is just an explanation letter.
Speaking at a briefing on the outcomes of his second working visit to Myanmar for foreign diplomatic corps accredited to Cambodia and media members here this afternoon, H.E. Prak Sokhonn said as the Chair of ASEAN and with the consensus from other ASEAN counterparts, if there is no more progress on the implementation of the Five-Point Consensus (5PC), we can invite only a non-political representative of Myanmar to attend this forthcoming meeting.
“In the letter, I made an explanation to Myanmar’s Foreign Minister H.E. U Wunna Maung Lwin [over the invitation of non-political representative],” he said.
As the Chair of ASEAN this year, Cambodia hosted the ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Retreat on Feb. 16-17, 2022 in Phnom Penh in a hybrid format without Myanmar’s representative.
