流亡柬埔寨政客谴责法语国家组织峰会，指责当局镇压 记者 Poppy McPherson 曼谷11月13日电 - 流亡在外的柬埔寨反对派人物桑兰西谴责本周末在金边举行的领导人聚会（与会者包括法国总统马克龙）是一场“骗局”，称该东南亚国家存在政治迫害和有组织犯罪，不适合作为会议举办地。
Exiled Cambodian politician denounces Francophonie summit, citing repression By Poppy McPherson BANGKOK, Nov 13 - Exiled Cambodian opposition figure Sam Rainsy denounced a gathering of leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, in Phnom Penh this weekend as a "sham", saying political persecution and organised crime in the Southeast Asian nation made it an inappropriate venue.
各国元首和高级部长正在柬埔寨首都出席国际法语国家组织（OIF）峰会。该组织旨在促进法语国家间的合作，并将和平、民主和人权列为核心宗旨。
Heads of state and senior ministers are meeting in the Cambodian capital for a summit of the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF). The organisation promotes cooperation between French-speaking nations and lists peace, democracy and human rights among its core tenets.
桑兰西周五通过电话从巴黎对路透社表示：“我认为这次峰会在错误的地点、错误的时间举行。”他在逃离柬埔寨后流亡在外，在柬埔寨因多项罪名被缺席判刑，其政党也被取缔。
"I think the summit is going to take place at the wrong place at the wrong time," Rainsy told Reuters on Friday by phone from Paris. He lives in self-exile after fleeing Cambodia, where he has been convicted of multiple offences in absentia and his political party has been banned.
他说：“柬埔寨在民主、法治、人权、司法独立等方面处于非常困难的境地……这与法语国家组织声称代表的价值观完全背道而驰。我认为这是一场骗局，是一场奇怪的峰会。”柬埔寨新闻部长奈·皮克特拉表示，政府“没有时间搞争论”，正专注于让这次聚会取得成功。
"Cambodia is in a very difficult situation in terms of democracy, the rule of law, human rights, independence of the judiciary...which is totally contrary to the values that the Francophonie is supposed to represent," he said. "I think it is a sham. It is a strange summit." Neth Pheaktra, Cambodia's minister of information, said the government had "no time for polemics" and was focused on making the gathering a success.
联合国呼吁释放被拘留者 周一，联合国柬埔寨人权问题特使汤姆·安德鲁斯敦促政府在峰会前释放100多名因“行使基本自由”而被拘留的人员，其中包括环保活动人士。他说，这样做将体现法语国家组织的价值观。
UN CALLS FOR RELEASE OF DETAINEES On Monday, Tom Andrews, the United Nations' human rights envoy to Cambodia, urged the government to release more than 100 people detained for "exercising their fundamental freedoms", including environmental activists, before the summit. He said doing so would honor the OIF's values.
26个柬埔寨组织组成的联盟本周向加拿大和法国驻金边大使馆递交了一份联合请愿书，援引“民主倒退、侵犯人权和打压公民社会”，呼吁出席峰会的国家抗议“局势迅速恶化”。
A coalition of 26 Cambodian organisations this week handed the Canadian and French embassies in Phnom Penh a joint petition citing "democratic backsliding, human rights violations, and attacks on civil society". It called on states attending the summit to protest the "rapidly deteriorating situation".
一名爱丽舍宫官员告诉路透社，法国在峰会上有“要传达的信息”，人权和法治问题正“在各个层面”得到处理。“空椅子政策不是推进这些问题的最佳方式，”该官员说。
An Elysee official told Reuters that France had "messages to convey" at the summit and that human rights and rule of law were being addressed "at all levels". "The policy of the empty chair is not the best way to move these issues forward," the official said.
强人洪森统治柬埔寨近四十年，直到2023年将权力移交给其子洪玛奈。他仍保有相当大的影响力，包括担任执政党柬埔寨人民党主席。
Strongman Hun Sen governed Cambodia for nearly four decades until 2023, when he handed power to his son, Hun Manet. He retains considerable influence, including as head of the ruling Cambodian People's Party.
人权组织表示，政治镇压持续进行，政府压制异见、独立媒体和公民社会。
Rights groups say political repression has continued, with the government stifling dissent, independent media and civil society.
柬埔寨也已成为数十亿美元网络诈骗产业的中心，犯罪集团（多为中国裔）建立了蔓延庞大的诈骗园区，由被贩运的工人被迫在其中诈骗全球民众。政府去年发起打击行动，但批评者称其未能针对与该产业有关联的权势精英。
Cambodia has also become an epicenter of the multibillion-dollar cyberfraud industry, as criminal syndicates, mostly of Chinese origin, have built sprawling scam compounds staffed by trafficked workers forced to defraud people worldwide. The government launched a crackdown last year, but critics say it has failed to target powerful elites linked to the industry.
“法语国家组织不能在犯罪网络享有豁免权、公民被剥夺民主权利的情况下，可信地促进共同繁荣，”另一位流亡柬埔寨政客穆索楚说。
“The Francophonie cannot credibly promote shared prosperity while criminal networks operate with impunity and citizens are denied their democratic rights,” said Mu Sochua, another exiled Cambodian politician.
