Cambodian government reaffirmed Friday that it has banned all kinds of production of chemical and nuclear weapons which is contradictory to international treaty.
In a press statement released after a weekly cabinet meeting, it said a sub-decree with four articles was approved Friday during the meeting at which it is designed to examine the chemical substance which is potential for the production of chemical and nuclear weapons.
The sub-decree regulates the control, management and collection of data on the need of any use of chemical substance which is required by the international convention.
The sub-decree was approved as correlation to the country’s constitution.
Cambodia’s Constitution, article 54, says that “The manufacturing, use, storage of nuclear, chemical or biological weapons shall be absolutely prohibited.”
Cambodia is a signatory and a party to many international conventions and treaties, including the Ottawa Treaty which deals with landmines.
