PHNOM PENH, Aug 4 ― Southeast Asia's regional bloc Asean warned today of a risk that volatility caused by tensions in the Taiwan Strait could lead to “miscalculation, serious confrontation, open conflicts and unpredictable consequences among major powers”.
“Asean stands ready to play a constructive role in facilitating peaceful dialogue between all parties,” Asean said as it called for maximum restraint and for parties to refrain from provocative action. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, in comments after talks with his Indian counterpart Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, said he had been able to compare notes with a close partner “as we head into these very important Asean meetings”.
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen said yesterday that Asean would be forced to reconsider a peace plan agreed with Myanmar if its military rulers executed more prisoners.
