UN Resolution on Cambodia

A resolution at the UN Security Council, led by non-aligned countries, demands the withdrawal of foreign forces from Cambodia, implicitly targeting Vietnam. The resolution is expected to face a veto from Russia, highlighting the geopolitical tensions surrounding the Cambodian conflict. Following the Khmer Rouge's fall in 1979, Prince Norodom Sihanouk was released from house arrest, with his support for Pol Pot's external policies contrasted by his rejection of the regime's domestic actions. Sihanouk's return to international diplomacy, however, served primarily as an effort to regain sovereignty and address foreign occupation.
