Cambodia has invited Russia’s Foreign Minister to attend ASEAN-related meetings in August, despite Russia having been widely condemned over its ongoing invasion of Ukraine.

Cambodia, the current chair of the 10-member association, will host ASEAN ministerial meetings, including the ASEAN Plus Three Meeting—involving Japan, China, and South Korea—and other related meetings from July 31 to Aug. 6.
