BANGKOK -- Russia's surprise invasion of Ukraine has shocked the world, including Asia, a region far from where the war is unfolding.
"Although we are far away and a small country, international issues such as this are very concerning," said Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Feb. 24, when Russian troops invaded Ukraine. Hun Sen made the remark during a meeting with Malaysian Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob in Phnom Penh.
