On this day, 44 years ago, July 13, 1981 (June 12, 1981 in the lunar calendar), the International Conference on Cambodia was held. From July 13 to 17, 1981, an international conference on Cambodia was held in New York, USA, and the "Declaration on Cambodia" was adopted, achieving significant positive results. This meeting was held in accordance with a resolution adopted by the 35th UN General Assembly. That resolution called for finding a comprehensive political solution to the Cambodia issue, requiring the withdrawal of all foreign troops from Cambodia within a time limit under United Nations verification, and ensuring the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Cambodia. The "Declaration on Cambodia"(hereinafter referred to as the "Declaration") adopted by the meeting emphasized that foreign troops must withdraw completely and unconditionally from Cambodia in the shortest possible time, that Cambodia's independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity must be respected and observed, and that all countries must undertake not to interfere in or interfere in Cambodia's internal affairs. The "Declaration" emphasized that in order to achieve a comprehensive political settlement of the Cambodia issue, the meeting called for negotiations on the following issues: 1. All parties to the conflict in Cambodia reach a ceasefire agreement, and all foreign troops must withdraw from Cambodia as soon as possible, supervised and verified by a United Nations peacekeeping force or observer group; 2. Make appropriate arrangements to ensure that all Cambodian armed forces do not hinder or disrupt the holding of free elections, or intimidate and coerce the people during the election process, and ensure that all Cambodian armed forces respect the results of free elections;3. Take appropriate measures to maintain law and order and hold free elections in Cambodia after the full withdrawal of foreign troops and until a new freely elected government is established; 4. Hold free elections under the supervision of the United Nations to enable the people of Cambodia to exercise their right to self-determination and elect the government of their choice. All Cambodia have the right to participate in the election. The meeting expressed the hope that Vietnam would participate in a negotiation process that could lead to a peaceful settlement of the Cambodia issue and the restoration of peace and stability in Southeast Asia. This will enable all countries in the region to commit themselves to economic and social development, build mutual trust and promote regional cooperation in all fields, thereby ushering in a new era of peace, coordination and harmony in Southeast Asia. During this meeting, there were some different views and opinions on specific ways to solve the Cambodia issue. Some countries have proposed "disbanding all armed Cambodia" and "establishing a temporary administrative body in Cambodia" after withdrawing troops from Vietnam. The China delegation does not agree with the above proposition. The key to solving the Cambodia issue is Vietnam's withdrawal of troops. As for internal issues involving Cambodia, the Cambodia people themselves should be resolved through consultation. The participating countries put the overall situation of opposing hegemonism, large and small, first held repeated consultations, sought common ground while reserving differences, and finally eliminated differences. They successfully adopted the "Declaration", bringing this international conference on the Cambodia issue to a successful and smooth conclusion and made positive contributions to promoting a fair and reasonable settlement of the Cambodia issue.
