HC Deb 23 July 1990 vol 177 c102W
Mr. Alton

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs whether the United Kingdom will now withdraw Her Majesty's Government's support for recognition of the Khmer Rouge at the United Nations in the light of Secretary of State James Baker's recent statement on the United States Government's decision to open dialogue with the Vietnamese Government and withdraw recognition from the Khmer Rouge coalition.

Mrs. Clwyd

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what consideration has been given to holding a review of the situation regarding Cambodia's United Nations seat before the autumn.

Mr. Sainsbury

As we have made clear before. we and our European Community partners have for some while been considering what changes are necessary in the arrangements for Cambodia's representation at the United Nations. We do not want the coalition of which the Khmer Rouge is a member to continue to occupy the Cambodian seat.
