CAMBODIAN HUMAN RIGHTS COMMITTEE CALLS ON SWEDEN TO REVIEW JET SALE TO THAILAND, POSING RISK TO CIVILIANS

Cambodian Human Rights Committee (CHRC) has sent a letter to Director of Swedish Institute for Human Rights, Mr. Fredrik Malmberg, to call for review of the Gripen (E/F) Fighter Jet sale to Thailand, to uphold human rights principles.

CHRC emphasizes that such sale would not only undermine peace and security but also poses a grave risk of the aircraft being used in acts of aggression against Cambodia, placing civilians in danger and threatening national sovereignty.
