On April 8, Cambodian Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Defence Tea Seiha attended a welcoming ceremony for the Russian Pacific Fleet ships Sovershenny (333) and Rezky (343) at Sihanoukville Autonomous Port. The report says the two vessels began a three-day visit with about 262 crew members.
Tea Seiha said the Russian naval visit would further consolidate traditional friendship and defence cooperation between Cambodia and Russia, reflecting their long-standing strategic trust and exchanges.
He expressed hope that Russia would continue supporting the development of Cambodia’s armed forces, particularly through closer cooperation in personnel training and joint military exercises, to further develop bilateral military relations.
