PHNOM PENH: Senate President Hun Sen has warned that if the border issues between Cambodia and Thailand are not resolved through the International Court of Justice (ICJ), it could lead to a situation like the one in Gaza, where Israel and Palestine appear to be locked in an endless conflict.

Addressing a meeting of the National Assembly and Senate Joint Committee Monday, June 2, Hun Sen said that Cambodia’s invitation for Thailand to join the Kingdom in filing a joint case at the ICJ was a respectful way of offering the neighbouring Kingdom a way to resolve the issue diplomatically.
