Phnom Penh: Cambodian government spokesman Pen Bona said that Cambodia’s top leaders will never abandon their duty to reclaim territory from Thailand, which they illegally occupied.
In a statement on the Cambodian-Thai border situation on June 30, 2026, Mr. Pen Bona said that Samdech Maha Vajiralongkorn, Prime Minister Hun Sen, declared to the Cambodian nation that “protecting the territory and people is the highest priority of the Royal Government. The Royal Government will never abandon its obligation to claim the territory and has been striving to resolve the issue peacefully based on international law.”
He said that Samdech Techo Hun Sen, President of the Senate and Chairman of the Cambodian People’s Party, the ruling party, has also made it clear to the Cambodian people that “Cambodia has chosen the path of peace but will never make any concessions to its sovereignty and dignity.”
The Royal Government Spokesperson stated that the Royal Government of Cambodia’s continuous protests against the Thai side’s violations of international law and the rights of Cambodian citizens are evidence of legal and moral value that is indispensable in protecting the sovereignty and integrity of its territory and citizens. The clear and decisive stance of the Royal Government and the Cambodian leadership is a testament to their determination against aggression, while the great solidarity among the Cambodian people is a strong national defense force for the people.
