PHNOM PENH -- Cambodian officials on Thursday denied the country planned to host the Chinese military on its soil, saying recent reports on military facilities there were foreign propaganda to sow discord in the region.
In an almost two-hour news conference, several officials sought to discredit the reports of Beijing's plans to establish a military foothold in the Southeast Asian state as "fake news," a term deployed by U.S. President Donald Trump to attack critical coverage of his administration.
