stalls on genocide tribunal

PHNOM PENH, Cambodia (AP) - Cambodia's foreign minister says he first
wants to check his schedule before deciding whether to testify at a
tribunal for Khmer Rouge leaders accused of genocide. Foreign Affairs
Minister Hor Namhong is one of the six senior members of Prime Minister
Hun Sen's Cambodian People's Party summoned before the U.N.-backed
court. All of them also exercised some authority during the Khmer Rouge
reign of terror in the mid-1970s and appear reluctant to become
involved with the tribunal. The tribunal is seeking justice for the
estimated 1.7 million people who died in Cambodia from execution,
overwork, disease and malnutrition as a result of the communist Khmer
Rouge's radical policies.
