Sam Rainsy informed the King of his choice. In case of refusal he claims to be ready to go to the Royal Palace.

On the 2nd of September, the day before travelling to Europe, Sam Rainsy sent a letter to Norodom Sihamoni. In this correspondence the opposition leader informs the monarch that, on the 24th of September, his 26 delegates will refuse to take oath at the same time as the CPP elected representatives.

A decision which aims at disputing “the violation of the people’s rights to vote”, as well as the numerous “election frauds”.

The SRP elected representatives thus want to take oath on the day after the parliamentary opening session. In case the King refuses, “we’ll go to a sacred place in front of the Royal Palace”, said the SRP leader.
