Brokering Cambodia's Peace Accords

The Paris Peace Accords on Cambodia were a significant achievement, involving substantial diplomatic efforts by many stakeholders within and outside of Cambodia and Southeast Asia. Australia, amongst other crucial countries, played a pivotal role in brokering the peace agreements and ending years of armed conflict in Cambodia. This session examines the diplomatic and negotiation strategies adopted by the countries involved in achieving the peace agreements, and the challenges they overcame in the process.
