This address, Statement to the Conference on Vietnam and Kampuchea by Torben Retboll, delivers a critical condemnation of Vietnam’s invasion of Kampuchea, exposing the contradictions in Hanoi’s justification for its aggression. Retboll argues that Vietnam, having fought for its own self-determination against French and American imperialism, has now become an occupying force, denying Kampuchea the same right. He highlights the hypocrisy of both the Soviet Union and the West in their selective outrage over invasions, while demonstrating how the Vietnamese occupation led to famine, forced labor, and continued warfare rather than stability. Retboll ultimately calls for Kampuchea’s right to determine its own political future, free from foreign domination—whether by Vietnam, China, or global superpowers.
