At a briefing on Prime Minister Hun Manet’s August 30 to September 1 trip for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Plus summit in Tianjin, China, Meas Sophorn said President Xi Jinping had pledged continued support for Cambodia’s self-reliant development and protection of its national sovereignty.
Xi also announced 20 million yuan in humanitarian assistance for Cambodia to help repair damage and relieve hardship caused by the armed clashes in late July.
