(PHNOM PENH) - The European Union said Wednesday it was giving two million euros (three million dollars) to Cambodia's Khmer Rouge war crimes court, which is set to give judgment early next year in its first trial.
The money is for the cash-strapped Cambodian side of the hybrid local-international court, set up with help from the United Nations in 2006 to bring justice to victims of the hardline communist regime.
"The European Union has been very active supporting this tribunal, which is bringing international justice to Cambodia," Rafael Dochao, charge d'affaires for the EU delegation in Phnom Penh, told reporters in the capital.
